Question:
Is there a way to find out the first visible row in a List?
Answer:
The standard AWT java.awt.List
class does not provide a means for determining the first visible row in a list. However, the Swing package, which is now standard in Java 1.2, provides this functionality in javax.swing.JList
. To determine theindex of the first visible row in a JList, simply call getFirstVisibleIndex()
. You can also determine the last visible row by invoking getLastVisibleIndex()
. You willgenerally find that the Swing classes provide you with greater functionality and flexibility than the core AWT package.
