ParagraphView

public class ParagraphView
extends FlowView
implements TabExpander

View of a simple line-wrapping paragraph that supports multiple fonts, colors, components, icons, etc. It is basically a vertical box with a margin around it. The contents of the box are a bunch of rows which are special horizontal boxes. This view creates a collection of views that represent the child elements of the paragraph element. Each of these views are placed into a row directly if they will fit, otherwise the breakView method is called to try and carve the view into pieces that fit.

getLayoutViewCount

protected int getLayoutViewCount()

Returns the number of views that this view is responsible for. The child views of the paragraph are rows which have been used to arrange pieces of the Views that represent the child elements. This is the number of views that have been tiled in two dimensions, and should be equivalent to the number of child elements to the element this view is responsible for.

Returns:

the number of views that this ParagraphView is responsible for

getLayoutView

protected View getLayoutView(int index)

Returns the view at a given index. The child views of the paragraph are rows which have been used to arrange pieces of the Views that represent the child elements. This methods returns the view responsible for the child element index (prior to breaking). These are the Views that were produced from a factory (to represent the child elements) and used for layout.

Parameters:

index - the index of the desired view

Returns:

the view at index

adjustRow

protected void adjustRow(javax.swing.text.ParagraphView.Row r,

                         int x)

Adjusts the given row if possible to fit within the layout span. By default this will try to find the highest break weight possible nearest the end of the row. If a forced break is encountered, the break will be positioned there.

This is meant for internal usage, and should not be used directly.

Parameters:

r - the row to adjust to the current layout span

desiredSpan - the current layout span >= 0

x - the location r starts at

flipEastAndWestAtEnds

protected boolean flipEastAndWestAtEnds(int position,
                                        Position.Bias bias)

Determines in which direction the next view lays. Consider the View at index n. Typically the Views are layed out from left to right, so that the View to the EAST will be at index n + 1, and the View to the WEST will be at index n - 1. In certain situations, such as with bidirectional text, it is possible that the View to EAST is not at index n + 1, but rather at index n - 1, or that the View to the WEST is not at index n - 1, but index n + 1. In this case this method would return true, indicating the Views are layed out in descending order.

This will return true if the text is layed out right to left at position, otherwise false.

Overrides:

flipEastAndWestAtEnds in class BoxView

Parameters:

position - position into the model

bias - either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward

Returns:

true if the text is layed out right to left at position, otherwise false.

getFlowSpan

public int getFlowSpan(int index)

Fetches the constraining span to flow against for the given child index.

Overrides:

getFlowSpan in class FlowView

Parameters:

index - the index of the view being queried

Returns:

the constraining span for the given view at index

See Also:

FlowView.getFlowStart(int)

getFlowStart

public int getFlowStart(int index)

Fetches the location along the flow axis that the flow span will start at.

Overrides:

getFlowStart in class FlowView

Parameters:

index - the index of the view being queried

Returns:

the location for the given view at index

See Also:

FlowView.getFlowSpan(int)

createRow

protected View createRow()

Create a View that should be used to hold a a row's worth of children in a flow.

Specified by:

createRow in class FlowView

Returns:

the new View

nextTabStop

public float nextTabStop(float x,
                         int tabOffset)

Returns the next tab stop position given a reference position. This view implements the tab coordinate system, and calls getTabbedSpan on the logical children in the process of layout to determine the desired span of the children. The logical children can delegate their tab expansion upward to the paragraph which knows how to expand tabs. LabelView is an example of a view that delegates its tab expansion needs upward to the paragraph.

This is implemented to try and locate a TabSet in the paragraph element's attribute set. If one can be found, its settings will be used, otherwise a default expansion will be provided. The base location for for tab expansion is the left inset from the paragraphs most recent allocation (which is what the layout of the children is based upon).

Specified by:

nextTabStop in interface TabExpander

Parameters:

x - the X reference position

tabOffset - the position within the text stream that the tab occurred at >= 0

Returns:

the trailing end of the tab expansion >= 0

See Also:

TabSet, TabStop, LabelView

getTabSet

protected TabSet getTabSet()

Gets the Tabset to be used in calculating tabs.

Returns:

the TabSet

getPartialSize

protected float getPartialSize(int startOffset,
                               int endOffset)

Returns the size used by the views between startOffset and endOffset. This uses getPartialView to calculate the size if the child view implements the TabableView interface. If a size is needed and a View does not implement the TabableView interface, the preferredSpan will be used.

Parameters:

startOffset - the starting document offset >= 0

endOffset - the ending document offset >= startOffset

Returns:

the size >= 0

findOffsetToCharactersInString

protected int findOffsetToCharactersInString(char[] string,
                                             int start)

Finds the next character in the document with a character in string, starting at offset start. If there are no characters found, -1 will be returned.

Returns:

where tabs are calculated from

paint

public void paint(Graphics g,

a - the allocated region to render into

See Also:

View.paint(java.awt.Graphics, java.awt.Shape)

getAlignment

public float getAlignment(int axis)

Overrides:

getAlignment in class BoxView

Parameters:

axis - may be either View.X_AXIS or View.Y_AXIS

Returns:

the desired alignment. This should be a value between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive, where 0 indicates alignment at the origin and 1.0 indicates alignment to the full span away from the origin. An alignment of 0.5 would be the center of the view.

breakView

public View breakView(int axis,
                      float len,
                      Shape a)

Breaks this view on the given axis at the given length.

ParagraphView instances are breakable along the Y_AXIS only, and only if len is after the first line.

Parameters:
