Java Forum / GUI / January 2008graphical calendar view
Hello, It seems that the standard Java library doesn't include a graphical calendar component so I was wondering if anyone happens to know of a free one, preferably one that is big enough that would allow text to be readable on the individual days (to list daily tasks, etc.)? If there isn't one, any ideas on how I'd go about creating my own based on the info from the existing java.util.Calendar object? I assume I would probably need to have a JTable created at the least. Any suggestions on doing that are appreciated. thanks Brandon > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > thanks > Brandon I would create a Component that draws the month that you want to see. You can draw your appointments or whatever the same way. Your application will need controls to select a month, add appointments or whatever.

Do you mean to do so using a Graphics2D canvas on the Component? That will obviously take some time to make sure all the lines match up correctly. I'd like to have any text on the days be clickable so that a JList also in the window can display the details of the item that is clicked. That response is doable (although very difficult I think) with text on a Graphics canvas however showing that the text was actually clicked would not occur to provide the user feedback similar to how a hyperlink being clicked provides user feedback. thanks Knute Brandon >>> Hello, >>> [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > Brandon It wasn't exactly clear what you were trying to make so to simplify it, create a day component that has the clickable features and then put them together in a month component. There are a million ways to attack this depending on what exactly you want it to do.
