I am trying to customize PartStack header of a view in rcp application. My goal is to customize the coloring of the header and to add date and time to it and hide minimize and maximize buttons. Buttons can be hidden using css but other goals give me hard time. At the moment I am looking to use a custom renderer by overriding some methods in StackRenderer class. Is that a right approach or is there another renderer that I shoud use?
If you don't want the min/max buttons then do not include MinMaxAddon in the Add On list in the Application.e4xmi.
Using a custom renderer for StackRenderer is useful for changing the text of the part tabs items. If you want to put text elsewhere on the part stack line you will probably need to look at the MinMaxAddon to see how it does that.

Is there a way to add a custom column menu tab with my own favourite icon which on click would render my custom react component?
something like
myColDef.menuTabs: ['generalMenuTab', 'filterMenuTab', 'myCustomMenuTab']
FYI I'm using v12.0.2
What you're after can't be done I'm afraid. The grid supports React components in all sorts of ways (renderers, editors, filters etc), but not via the column menu.
I've updated the docs page to remove the gibberish issue - it'll be fixed properly in the next release, thanks for highlighting this.
This would be helpful to have. In particular for us, we'd like to filter based off row properties, and not row values. Creating our own tab to filter by cell colors that we have assigned with our own set of labels would be useful.
I agree that it would be a nice feature to have. Apparently, there's no quick out-of-the-box solution to do it. The only workaround I see is to implement your own custom Header component which would display any buttons your want.
There you can put a button to open your own custom menu, which you can implement as any regular UI component. It also means you'll need to manually implement all standard menu options that Ag-Grid provides out of the box if you need them.
To be clear i'm a newbie to GWT.I was looking around for samples to implement dynamic tabs, and found this link, http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/GWT/AddingnewtabdynamicallyExtGWT.htm , in which they make use of GXT.But my question is,how can i implement dynamic views using UIBinder?.I want to implement something similar to browser tabs.Each newly created tab has a split panel view, whose content will be populated making a rpc request.My question is , how is the history mechanism handled when user switches between tabs?.Can anyone provide with samples?Thanks
You declare your TabLayoutPanel together with the initial/default tabs in UiBinder. Then you can add or remove tabs from this panel in your Java code.
How can I create a custom view with a custom style? I have many TextView's in my layout and its kind of difficult to manage all of them. I want to group them in a custom view with custom look (a box with rounded corners) and in my code just give the values to the custom view code to handle it itself.
What I am looking after is something like:
Can someone plesae tell me the steps to create such custom view with rounded box and few TextView's inside it?
Two approaches:
You can create a layout for your view. You need to take different layout widgets like textviews etc. and assign them values.
You can use canvas to draw such view.
The proper way is to inherit from View. Either programatically or in designer You assign any layout to this view. To the layout You assign Your elements ( TextViews, whatever ).
Create methods in the derived View class which fill the inner elements, something like getters/setters, like properties in c#. Those are public.
Then place Your custom compound control onto Your main view.
I for myself created a column orientated tablecontrol with custom scrollbar this way ( but pure via code ) and it works very well. Ah, and additionally You can draw shapes on Your derived view, which allow You relatively simple to apply round corners, and even color transitions.
I'm assuming you're using eclipse to create your android project.
Go to your src file and create a new layout (relative layout works best here). There is a visual representation of the layout you're creating so you should be able to play around with it. Drag and drop the textviews where you want them and give them unique names. Then in your java code, call the textviews like:
TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textview_name_here);
text.setText("Your Text Here");
There are plenty of examples online.
The JavaFX 2 colour picker has a button that pops up a colour chooser pane like so:
I'd like to do something similar, in that I'd like a custom pane to pop up when the button is clicked on and disappear when something else is clicked (in my case, a few image thumbnails). What would be the best way of achieving this? Should I use a ContextMenu and add a pane to a MenuItem somehow, or is there something else I should look at?
It's kind of difficult to do well with the current JavaFX 2.2 API.
Here are some options.
Use a MenuButton with a graphic set in it's MenuItem
This is the approach taken in Button with popup showed below's executable sample code.
Use a PopupControl
Take a look at how the ColorPicker does this in it's code.
ColorPicker extends PopupControl. You could do this, but not all of the API required to build your own PopupControl is currently public. So, for JavaFX 2.2, you would have to rely on internal com.sun classes which are deprecated and will be replaced by public javafx.scene.control classes in JDK8.
Use a ContextMenu
So, I think your idea to "use a ContextMenu and add a pane to a MenuItem" is probably the best approach for now. You should be able to do this by using a CustomMenuItem or setting a graphic on a normal MenuItem. The ContextMenu has nice relative positioning logic. A ContextMenu can also be triggered by a MenuButton.
Use a Custom Dialog
To do this, display a transparent stage at a location relative to the node.
There is some sample code to get you started which I have temporarily linked here.
The sample code does relative positioning to the sides of the main window, but you could update it to perform positioning relative to the sides of a given node (like the ContextMenu's show method).
Use a Glass Pane
To do this, create a StackPane as your root of your main window. Place your main content pane as the first node in the StackPane and then create a Group as the second node in the stackpane, so that it will layer over the top of the main content. Normally, the top group contains nothing, but when you want to show your popup, place it in the top group and translate it to a location relative to the appropriate node in your main content.
You could look at how the anchor nodes in this demo are used to see how this might be adaptable to your context.
Is there a relevant update for this for JavaFX8?
There is not much difference of relevance for Java 8, in general the options are as outlined in this post based on Java 2.2 functionality. Java 8 does add Dialog and Alert functionality, but those are more targeted at use of dialogs with borders, titles and buttons rather than the kind of functionality desired in the question. Perhaps you might be able to start from the Dialog class and heavily customize it to get something close to what is needed, but you are probably better off starting from a blank stage or PopupControl instead.
Is there any way to customize the map annotation bubbles in Appcelerator Titanium? Specifically, I'd like them to be able to display more text than what they show (ideally, by expanding to fit the text). I know I can make them clickable and take the user to a page with more info, but I simply don't have enough information to warrant that. It's basically just the title text is too long (and I can't change the text itself, it comes from sources I have no control over).
Alternatively (if customizing what's there isn't an option), is there an easy way to do custom bubbles? I don't really want to have to reinvent the wheel and rewrite the pins themselves and their event handlers, but if it comes down to it (and someone can point me to some code that can get me started, since I know if it's required, someone's done it), then so be it.
iPhone-specific options are fine.
At this moment the latest Titanium SDK gives you such possibilities for annotation bubble customization:
Add subtitle for the bubble (subtitle option). You will see additional text under the title. On Android subtitle can be multiline (using '\n').
Add left and right view to the bubble (leftView\rightView options). You can add custom view to the left or right part of the bubble. And view can consist of different elements (label, image...).
Read more here.
If this is enough for your task - you can use it. But for deeper customization you must create your own view and show it on annotation click event.
