JLayer
is a universal decorator for Swing components which enables you to implement various advanced painting effects as well as receive notifications of allAWTEvent
s generated within its borders.JLayer
delegates the handling of painting and input events to aLayerUI
object, which performs the actual decoration.The custom painting implemented in the
LayerUI
and events notification work for the JLayer itself and all its subcomponents. This combination enables you to enrich existing components by adding new advanced functionality such as temporary locking of a hierarchy, data tips for compound components, enhanced mouse scrolling etc and so on.JLayer
is a good solution if you only need to do custom painting over compound component or catch input events from its subcomponents.import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.plaf.LayerUI; import java.awt.*; public class JLayerSample { private static JLayer<JComponent> createLayer() { // This custom layerUI will fill the layer with translucent green // and print out all mouseMotion events generated within its borders LayerUI<JComponent> layerUI = new LayerUI<JComponent>() { public void paint(Graphics g, JComponent c) { // paint the layer as is super.paint(g, c); // fill it with the translucent green g.setColor(new Color(0, 128, 0, 128)); g.fillRect(0, 0, c.getWidth(), c.getHeight()); } public void installUI(JComponent c) { super.installUI(c); // enable mouse motion events for the layer's subcomponents ((JLayer) c).setLayerEventMask(AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK); } public void uninstallUI(JComponent c) { super.uninstallUI(c); // reset the layer event mask ((JLayer) c).setLayerEventMask(0); } // overridden method which catches MouseMotion events public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent e, JLayer<? extends JComponent> l) { System.out.println("AWTEvent detected: " + e); } }; // create a component to be decorated with the layer JPanel panel = new JPanel(); panel.add(new JButton("JButton")); // create the layer for the panel using our custom layerUI return new JLayer<JComponent>(panel, layerUI); } private static void createAndShowGUI() { final JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); // work with the layer as with any other Swing component frame.add(createLayer()); frame.setSize(200, 200); frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null); frame.setVisible(true); } public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(new Runnable() { public void run() { createAndShowGUI(); } }); } }

setLayerEventMask
public void setLayerEventMask(long layerEventMask)
Enables the events from JLayer and all its descendants defined by the specified event mask parameter to be delivered to theLayerUI.eventDispatched(AWTEvent, JLayer)
method.Events are delivered provided that
LayerUI
is set for thisJLayer
and theJLayer
is displayable.The following example shows how to correctly use this method in the
LayerUI
implementations:public void installUI(JComponent c) { super.installUI(c); JLayer l = (JLayer) c; // this LayerUI will receive only key and focus events l.setLayerEventMask(AWTEvent.KEY_EVENT_MASK | AWTEvent.FOCUS_EVENT_MASK); } public void uninstallUI(JComponent c) { super.uninstallUI(c); JLayer l = (JLayer) c; // JLayer must be returned to its initial state l.setLayerEventMask(0); }
By defaultJLayer
receives no events and its event mask is0

,LayerUI.eventDispatched(AWTEvent, JLayer)
,Component.isDisplayable()
getLayerEventMask
public long getLayerEventMask()
Returns the bitmap of event mask to receive by thisJLayer
and itsLayerUI
.It means that
LayerUI.eventDispatched(AWTEvent, JLayer)
method will only receive events that match the event mask.By default
JLayer
receives no events.- Returns:
-
the bitmask of event types to receive for this
JLayer
updateUI
public void updateUI()
Delegates its functionality to theLayerUI.updateUI(JLayer)
method, ifLayerUI

- the preferred size of the viewport for a view component
- See Also:
-
Scrollable
getScrollableBlockIncrement

getScrollableBlockIncrement
in interfaceScrollable
- Parameters:

visibleRect
- The view area visible within the viewport -
orientation
- Either SwingConstants.VERTICAL or SwingConstants.HORIZONTAL. -

- the "block" increment for scrolling in the specified direction
- See Also:
-
Scrollable
getScrollableTracksViewportHeight

Ideally, components should handle a partially exposed row or column by returning the distance required to completely expose the item.Scrolling containers, like
JScrollPane
, will use this method each time the user requests a unit scroll.If the view component of this layer implements
Scrollable
, this method delegates its implementation to the view component.- Specified by:
