Dear all,
Within a GenericDialog there are 3 methods for adding a NumericField, one of them nicely giving the possibility to define the unit of the field content:
void addNumericField(java.lang.String label, double defaultValue, int digits, int columns, java.lang.String units)
Very unfortunately there is only one method for adding a Choice which actually doesn't give the option for an unit entry:
addChoice(java.lang.String label, java.lang.String[] items, java.lang.String defaultItem)
Thus following the addChoice method, I thought using a:
addToSameRow()
followed by a
addMessage
will be doing the job.
Very unfortunately, in this case the added message correctly shows up on the same line than the choice but really really far away from the given Choice Component.
As an alternative, I tryed then to use the following code:
Component[] dlgItems = gd.getComponents();
Component comp = dlgItems[6];
GridBagLayout grid = (GridBagLayout) gd.getLayout();
GridBagConstraints cst = grid.getConstraints(comp);
cst.gridx = cst.gridx - 20;
cst.gridy = cst.gridy - 1;
grid.setConstraints(comp, cst);
But as I'm able to modify the cst.gridy value as wished, this isn't the case for the cst.gridx one which seems to be kind of blocked.
Thus is there a way to define an unit value just following a Choice Component?
I thank you very much in advance for your lights on this and wish you a nice week-end.
My best regards,
Philippe
