Overview

• What is new
• Conclusion

Introduction

Material-UI-Swing 1.1.1-rc2 is the last step before the official release, this release includes bug fixing, performance improvement, refactoring inside the MaterialTheming System.

In the previous month the library was supported by YourKit, with this profiling material-ui-swing has a big performance testing. (Result about profiling is coming)

Changes

This version includes bug fixing, the most important are:

• InternalFrame + TextComponent drawing issue
• Refactoring MouseHover event (Class MaterialUITime)
• Font scaling fix for high-resolution screen
• MaterialRootPaneUI resize problem
• Fix stack overflow exception inside the JSpinner. The bug is only inside the version 1.1.1-rc1 of the library.
• Added a different method to load a personal font with MaterialFontFactory.
  Now the dimension font with JDK8 os calculate with display size optimizing to fix pixel bug in JDK8 but the dimension is setting static (without optimizing) with JDK version >=9.
• Fixed rollover border on JToolBar.
• Refactoring JComboBox, now is possible to change the arch of the bord easy.
• Apply anti-aliasing to some component
• Support JDK9+
• Material arrow to JTabbedPanel with scrolling policy
• Support Font icon and deprecated PNG icon
• Refactoring Material theming, now you can implement only the method install color and if necessary other personal settings, you can use the new method, installColodDefaults(), look the source code here, jump into source code

What is new

There is a good change inside the library with the icon, the library use jiconfont to support the google material icons.
With this is possible to build a new icon with personal dimension and color, For example

JButton button = new JButton();
button.setIcon(MaterialImageFactory.getInstance().getImage(
                        GoogleMaterialDesignIcons.ADD_A_PHOTO,
                        MaterialColors.COSMO_BLACK)
);

The result is

Conclusion

Before all, I want say thanks all to all people that use this library and I want to say thanks to all developers that help me to improve the library in this 2020.

Thanks to, @mikera, @jarek-insys, @zanderson9

In conclusion, I want to share with you the maven data

Stay safe and materialize you swing app :)

Material-UI-Swing-1.1.1-rc1

Material-ui-swing 1.1.1 release candidate 1 has been released.

Other information here CHANGELOG.md

v1.1.1-prelease6.1

Material-UI-Swing pre-release 6.1

Introduction

This version includes the complete refactoring to JButton and restored all change inside the JTable (the code of the table UI is equal to code the version 1.1.1_beta material-ui-swing version).

MaterialButtonUI Refactoring

The old version of MaterialButtonUI had a bad code inside the implementation and this caused the bad performance with a complex client application, how JMars, an example mouse hover event on Jbutton worked bad or ware very slow.
The version 1.1.1 pre-release 6.1 (over to have an ugly name 😄) introduce a big refactoring inside the component UI, and change/simplifies the API of JButton if you want to create a personal UI.

as well as to disabled the mouse hovers on the Jbutton, you can disable the focus (borders dashed) and the button pressed effect.

With order.

Disabled mouse hover with personalUI

to paint the button with no mouse hover effect you can use this code, described in vincenzopalazzo/material-ui-swing issues.

Disabled borders dashed

to disabled border dashed there are two possible methods, like:

• set the button not focusable or with button.setFocusable(false);
• create a personal implementation of the method paintFoucs, like the following code

 @Override
    protected void paintFocus(Graphics g, AbstractButton b, Rectangle viewRect, Rectangle textRect, Rectangle iconRect) {
        paintBorderButton(g, b);
        
    }

Disable button pressed effect

To disabled button pressed effect you can override inside the personal UI component the method called paintButtonPressed with code like the following:

@Override
    protected void paintButtonPressed(Graphics g, AbstractButton b) {
        g.setColor(background);
        g.fillRoundRect(0, 0, b.getWidth(), b.getHeight(), arch, arch);
        paintBorderButton(g, b);
    }

Refactoring JTable

In the material-ui-swing 1.1.1 pre-release6.1 include refactoring to JTable, before this update the proprieties inside UIDefault was:

		UIManager.put("Table.alternateRowColor", true);
		UiManager.put("Table.alternateRowBackground", Color.RED);

and inside the MaterialTableCellRenderer the code was:

public class MaterialTableCellRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {

	@Override
	public Component getTableCellRendererComponent (JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
		JComponent component = (JComponent) super.getTableCellRendererComponent (table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
		// hides yellow selection highlight
		this.setHorizontalAlignment (SwingConstants.CENTER);
		this.setVerticalAlignment (SwingConstants.CENTER);

		if(value instanceof Boolean){
			TableCellRenderer renderer = new MaterialTableCellRendererCheckBox();
			return renderer.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
		}

		boolean alternativeRow = UIManager.getBoolean("Table.alternateRowColor");
		Color alternativeRowColor = UIManager.getColor("Table.alternateRowBackground");
		Color normalColor = UIManager.getColor("Table.background");
		if(alternativeRow){
			if(!isSelected){
				if(row%2 == 1) {
					component.setBackground(alternativeRowColor);
					setDefaultCellRenderWithAllType(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column, alternativeRowColor);
				}else{
					component.setBackground(normalColor);
					setDefaultCellRenderWithAllType(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column, normalColor);
				}
				component.setForeground(table.getForeground());
			}else {
				component.setForeground(table.getSelectionForeground());
			}
		}
		return component;
	}

	// This method sets a MaterialCellRender at the particular class
	// With this class not working correctly the color alternate in the Jtable
	// in particular the IconImage without this code the cell is painted not correctly or
	// in the cell did print the path of the image

	protected void setDefaultCellRenderWithAllType(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column, Color color) {
		if(table == null){
			throw new IllegalArgumentException("Table is null");
		}

		Component component = table.getDefaultRenderer(ImageIcon.class).getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
		component.setBackground(color);
	}
}

Now the code is refactorized and the UIManager proprieties are changed in

table.put("Table.alternateRowColor", Color.RED);

Now the paint row is managed to DefaultTableCellRenderer and if you create the PersonalTableCellRenderer, you can extend the API class (DefaultTableCellRenderer) and not MaterialTableCellRenderer

Conclusion

Now the implementation of JButton is a lot of personalizable but it is possible to increase the modularization of the component MaterialButtonUI.
For the moment the version remains this because another refactoring can introduce a few bugs inside the component behavior

Other changes are described inside the CHANGELOG file
