Creating a Custom JTable Cell Editor Using a Floating JWindow

Oct 13, 05:21 PM

I’ve been trying to get this to work for a couple weeks, off and on, and I have finally done it! When the user clicks on a cell of the table, a floating window pops up over the cell being edited. The user finishes editing and the updated cell appears in the table.

It sounds easy but sorting through the different objects and interfaces has been more difficult than I expected. Anyway, I have summed up my discoveries and coded up a small sample application. Let me know if you find it useful. :)
