Hello all,
I could use some design suggestions.
I'd like to write a swing app that uses a tree.
Most trees are rendered like this, with every
single child showing up below the parent:
Parent
|-Child
|-Child
|-Child
|-Grandchild
|-Grandchild
I'd like to render my nodes differently, like this:
|--child
|
Parent -+--child
|
|
| |-grandchild
|--child -+
|-grandchild
(In case the gods of email spacing/formatting
are not with me today, I've included a verbal
description at the end of this email.)
I can see how the TreeModel will come in handy.
Also, I know how I can specify my own CellRenderer to
customize individual nodes. I could use some help,
though, on customizing the layout. I'd like to use as
much of the JTree as I can.
Thanks in advance for any help,
--Erik Ostermueller
Verbal description, if the above picture gets trashed:
Most trees grow downward. ie, the tree renders
every single child below the parent. I'd like to
create a tree that renders this way:
As each child is rendered, the list of children
is re-centered around the parent. ie, with four
children, two are above the parent and two below.
With six children, 3 above, 3 below.
All children are rendered a full column width to
the right of the parent.
