JScrollPane.ScrollBar

public class JScrollBar
extends JComponent   
implements Adjustable   , Accessible   

An implementation of a scrollbar. The user positions the knob in the scrollbar to determine the contents of the viewing area. The program typically adjusts the display so that the end of the scrollbar represents the end of the displayable contents, or 100% of the contents. The start of the scrollbar is the beginning of the displayable contents, or 0%. The position of the knob within those bounds then translates to the corresponding percentage of the displayable contents.

Typically, as the position of the knob in the scrollbar changes a corresponding change is made to the position of the JViewport on the underlying view, changing the contents of the JViewport.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans^TM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder .

Method Summary

void	addAdjustmentListener (AdjustmentListener l) Adds an AdjustmentListener.
protected void	fireAdjustmentValueChanged (int id, int type, int value)
AccessibleContext	getAccessibleContext () Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this JScrollBar.
AdjustmentListener []	getAdjustmentListeners () Returns an array of all the AdjustmentListeners added to this JScrollBar with addAdjustmentListener().
int	getBlockIncrement () For backwards compatibility with java.awt.Scrollbar.
int	getBlockIncrement (int direction) Returns the amount to change the scrollbar's value by, given a block (usually "page") up/down request.
int	getMaximum () The maximum value of the scrollbar is maximum - extent.
Dimension	getMaximumSize () The scrollbar is flexible along it's scrolling axis and rigid along the other axis.
int	getMinimum () Returns the minimum value supported by the scrollbar (usually zero).
Dimension	getMinimumSize () The scrollbar is flexible along it's scrolling axis and rigid along the other axis.
BoundedRangeModel	getModel () Returns data model that handles the scrollbar's four fundamental properties: minimum, maximum, value, extent.
int	getOrientation () Returns the component's orientation (horizontal or vertical).
ScrollBarUI	getUI () Returns the delegate that implements the look and feel for this component.
String	getUIClassID () Returns the name of the LookAndFeel class for this component.
int	getUnitIncrement () For backwards compatibility with java.awt.Scrollbar.
int	getUnitIncrement (int direction) Returns the amount to change the scrollbar's value by, given a unit up/down request.
int	getValue () Returns the scrollbar's value.
boolean	getValueIsAdjusting () True if the scrollbar knob is being dragged.
int	getVisibleAmount () Returns the scrollbar's extent, aka its "visibleAmount".
protected String	paramString () Returns a string representation of this JScrollBar.
void	removeAdjustmentListener (AdjustmentListener l) Removes an AdjustmentEvent listener.
void	setBlockIncrement (int blockIncrement) Sets the blockIncrement property.
void	setEnabled (boolean x) Enables the component so that the knob position can be changed.
void	setMaximum (int maximum) Sets the model's maximum property.
void	setMinimum (int minimum) Sets the model's minimum property.
void	setModel (BoundedRangeModel newModel) Sets the model that handles the scrollbar's four fundamental properties: minimum, maximum, value, extent.
void	setOrientation (int orientation) Set the scrollbar's orientation to either VERTICAL or HORIZONTAL.
void	setUI (ScrollBarUI ui) Sets the L&F object that renders this component.
void	setUnitIncrement (int unitIncrement) Sets the unitIncrement property.
void	setValue (int value) Sets the scrollbar's value.
void	setValueIsAdjusting (boolean b) Sets the model's valueIsAdjusting property.
void	setValues (int newValue, int newExtent, int newMin, int newMax) Sets the four BoundedRangeModel properties after forcing the arguments to obey the usual constraints:
void	setVisibleAmount (int extent) Set the model's extent property.
void	updateUI () Overrides JComponent.updateUI.
