Inserterting JLabel into JComboBox


http://prntscr.com/1gpdqe

Sorry for the link it's my first time in this forum.

Can anyone please help me?

I've been trying to make an image and a text show together in one line on a JComboBox, after searching on sites, I could not find a solution to my problem.

The JLabel above the JLabel works but the JLabel in the JComboBox doesn't.


Solution

  • Maybe this example will sort things out:

    On getListCellRendererComponent I used Label + Icon

    import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import java.awt.Component;
    import java.awt.Dimension;
    import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
    import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.Map;
    
    import javax.swing.DefaultListCellRenderer;
    import javax.swing.Icon;
    import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
    import javax.swing.JComboBox;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JLabel;
    import javax.swing.JList;
    import javax.swing.JPanel;
    import javax.swing.UIManager;
    import javax.swing.UnsupportedLookAndFeelException;
    
    
    public class ShowConboWithIcons extends JFrame {
    
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    
    private static final ImageIcon INFO_ICON  = new ImageIcon("info.png");
    private static final ImageIcon NONE_ICON  = new ImageIcon("none.png");
    public final String NONE_STR = "None";
    private final String INFO_STR = "Info";
    
    private JComboBox comboBox;
    private JPanel    topPanel;
    
    private String[] str_arr = null; 
    
    
    public ShowConboWithIcons(String[] str_arr) {
        this.str_arr = str_arr;     
    }
    
    
    public void createGUI(){
    
        setMinimumSize(new Dimension(100,100));
        setTitle("Demo");
        setLocation(200, 200);
    
        topPanel = new JPanel();
        getContentPane().add(topPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    
        Map<Object, Icon> icons = new HashMap<Object, Icon>(); 
    
        icons.put(NONE_STR, NONE_ICON); 
        icons.put(INFO_STR, INFO_ICON); 
    
        comboBox = new JComboBox();
        comboBox.setRenderer(new IconListRenderer(icons));
        comboBox.addItem("None");
    
        for(String val : str_arr){
            comboBox.addItem(val);
        }
    
        topPanel.add(comboBox);
    
        super.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {           
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {              
                dispose();          
            }           
        }); 
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) throws ClassNotFoundException, InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException, UnsupportedLookAndFeelException {
    
        UIManager.setLookAndFeel( "com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel" );   
    
        String[] str_arr = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E"};
    
        ShowConboWithIcons T = new ShowConboWithIcons(str_arr);
        T.createGUI();
        T.setVisible(true);        
    }
    
    
    class IconListRenderer extends DefaultListCellRenderer{ 
        private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
        private Map<Object, Icon> icons = null; 
    
        public IconListRenderer(Map<Object, Icon> icons){ 
            this.icons = icons; 
        } 
    
        @Override
        public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value, int index,boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus)
        { 
            JLabel label = (JLabel) super.getListCellRendererComponent(list, value, index, isSelected, cellHasFocus); 
    
            // Get icon to use for the list item value 
            Icon icon = icons.get(value); 
    
            if(!value.toString().equals(NONE_STR)){
                icon = icons.get(INFO_STR);
            }
    
            // Set icon to display for value 
            label.setIcon(icon); 
            return label; 
        } 
    }
    }
