Re: Default button

I have to correct myself. I just found out that every second time I display a dialog, the blue default is shown. But never the first time =(

This is how one of my dialogs are shown. It is created the first time it is requested to be showned (any time after the main JFrame is displayed):

<x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>if</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> (</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>.appOpenDialog == </x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>null</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>)
{
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>.appOpenDialog = </x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>new</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> OpenDialog(</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>);
}
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>.appOpenDialog);
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>true</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>);
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>.appOpenDialog.enableDefaultButton();
</x-tad-bigger>
When the user press cancel or the close widget, it is disposed <x-tad-bigger>appOpenDialog.dispose()</x-tad-bigger>

According to Dustin's advice, I set it to be default after it is set visible:

<x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>public</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>void</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> enableDefaultButton()
{
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>true</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>);
</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>this</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>.openButton);
}
</x-tad-bigger>
To me it is a mystery that it works every time except from the first time it is shown...

Dustin,

Your trick works fine for my JFrame. Thanks!

But for my JDialogs it doesn't happen except the first one that is a login dialog. It seems like something in my code is in conflict with this behaviour. I got it to work for the login dialog after removing the line 'dialog.dispose()' which I called last in the constructor and then I called 'dialog.setVisible()' to show it. So I removed all 'dispose()' calls on the other dialogs but without success.

Anyone else with experience on this?

Regards, Josef

I have been able the get a default button to show the blue pulsing look on a JFrame. The key seems to be setting the default button after the frame is visible. e.g.:

jframe.show();
jframe.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(button);

If you show/hide the frame then you will have to set the default button every time it gets made visible.

The JButton needs to be on a JDialog.
If it is on a JFrame the Aqua Look and Feel will not change its appearance.
The behaviour should be correct though. Press the Enter key and the button
fires the action performed event.
