DropShadowPanel is a generic lightweight container casting the shadow of its children. The shadow itself is generated by a org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory you can provide or modify.

Besides the properties provided by the ShadowFactory, the drop shadow panel gives you control over the angle and the distance of the shadow. Any change of these properties, be the properties of the ShadowFactory or the angle or the distance, will triger an update of the panel to repaint it.

The default shadow factory provided by this panel is suited for good looking results with regular Swing components. You can also combine this panel with a org.jdesktop.swingx.StackLayout and a org.jdesktop.swingx.CheckboardPanel to create interesting effects.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: this component has not yet been fully tested.

Constructor Detail

DropShadowPanel

public DropShadowPanel()

Creates a new checkboard panel with a flow layout. The drop shadow has the following default properties:

• angle: 45°
• distance: 2 pixels
• size: 5 pixels (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• opacity: 50% (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• color: Black (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• rendering quality: VALUE_BLUR_QUALITY_FAST (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory

This configuration provides good looking results for use with Swing components. To add a drop shadow to a picture, the distance should be increased.

DropShadowPanel

public DropShadowPanel(java.awt.LayoutManager layout)

• distance: 2 pixels
• size: 5 pixels (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• opacity: 50% (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• color: Black (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory
• rendering quality: VALUE_BLUR_QUALITY_FAST (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory

This configuration provides good looking results for use with Swing components. To add a drop shadow to a picture, the distance should be increased.

DropShadowPanel

public DropShadowPanel(ShadowFactory factory,
                       java.awt.LayoutManager layout)

Creates a new checkboard panel the specified layout and shadow factory. The drop shadow has the following default properties:

• angle: 45°
• distance: 2 pixels

This configuration provides good looking results for use with Swing components. To add a drop shadow to a picture, the distance should be increased.

Method Detail

getShadowFactory

public ShadowFactory getShadowFactory()

Gets the shadow factory used to generate the shadow.

Returns:

this panel's shadow factory

setShadowFactory

public void setShadowFactory(ShadowFactory factory)

Sets the shadow factory used by this panel to generate the shadows.

If the specified factory is null, the default shadow factory is used instead (see org.jdesktop.swingx.util.ShadowFactory#ShadowFactory().

Parameters:

factory - the factory used to generate the shadows for this panel's content

getAngle

public float getAngle()

Gets the angle, in degrees, of the shadow relatively to the panel's content.

Returns:

this panel's shadow angle

setAngle

public void setAngle(float angle)

Sets the angle, in degrees, at which the drop shadow is drawn relatively to this panel's content.

The angle should be comprised between 0 and 360 but negative values and values greater than 360 are accepted.

Parameters:

angle - the angle of the shadow relatively to the panel's content

getDistance

public int getDistance()

Gets the distance, in pixels, of the shadow relatively to the panel's content.

Returns:

this panel's shadow distance

setDistance

public void setDistance(int distance)

Sets the distance, in pixels, at which the drop shadow is drawn relatively to this panel's content.

The distance can be either positive or negative.

Parameters:

distance - the distance of the shadow relatively to the panel's content

isOpaque

public boolean isOpaque()

Due to the nature of this panel, it is assumed it is non opaque. This allows to handle the drop shadow drawing properly.

Overrides:

isOpaque in class javax.swing.JComponent

Returns:

always true

doLayout

public void doLayout()

When this panel is asked to lay out its children components, the shadow is invalidated for redrawing.

Overrides:

doLayout in class java.awt.Container

paint

public void paint(java.awt.Graphics g)

When the drop shadow is invalidated (see doLayout()), the content of this panel is drawn in an offscreen picture and the shadow factory is asked to generate the shadow. Otherwise, the shadow is drawn, then the panel is painted as usual.

Overrides:

paint in class javax.swing.JComponent

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint

propertyChange

public void propertyChange(java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent evt)

Whenever a property of the shadow factory is changed, the shadow is invalidated and the panel is updated for repainting.

Specified by:

propertyChange in interface java.beans.PropertyChangeListener

Parameters:

evt - the property change event generating the update
