Constructor Detail

EnhancedButton

public EnhancedButton()

Creates a button with no set text or icon.

EnhancedButton

public EnhancedButton(javax.swing.Icon icon)

Creates a button with an icon.

Parameters:

icon - the Icon image to display on the button

EnhancedButton

public EnhancedButton(java.lang.String text)

Creates a button with text.

Parameters:

text - the text of the button

EnhancedButton

public EnhancedButton(javax.swing.Action a)

Creates a button where properties are taken from the Action supplied.

EnhancedButton

public EnhancedButton(java.lang.String text,
                      javax.swing.Icon icon)

Creates a button with initial text and an icon.

Parameters:

text - the text of the button.

icon - the Icon image to display on the button

Method Detail

setAlwaysPaintBorder

public void setAlwaysPaintBorder(boolean alwaysPaint)

Set to false if the button should only paint the border when the mouse is over the button. Otherwise set to true. Property defaults to false.

isAlwaysPaintBorder

public boolean isAlwaysPaintBorder()

Returns true if the button always paints the border even when the mouse is not rolling over.

isFocusPainted

public boolean isFocusPainted()

Overrides:

isFocusPainted in class javax.swing.AbstractButton

setColors

protected static void setColors(java.awt.Color background)

Sets the pressed and selected colors based on the passed in background color.

getBackground

public java.awt.Color getBackground()

Returns the background of the component, possibly modified for different ButtonModel states.

Overrides:

getBackground in class java.awt.Component

getBorder

public javax.swing.border.Border getBorder()

Returns a different border depending on the selected or pressed properties.

Overrides:

getBorder in class javax.swing.JComponent

getIcon

public javax.swing.Icon getIcon()

Returns either the normal default icon or the rollover icon depending on the pressed state. This is to allow us to use the same icon for rollover and pressed without losing the button press shifting. If you set the pressed icon manually then the icon won't be shifted down and over when the button is pressed.

Overrides:

getIcon in class javax.swing.AbstractButton

paintBorder

protected void paintBorder(java.awt.Graphics g)

Paint the button's border if the button model's rollover property is true or if the button model's selected property is true.

Overrides:

paintBorder in class javax.swing.AbstractButton

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint
