Full Screen Image Viewer Java

[kamirru]

Hi,

I have a question about the full screen mode in JAVA. I write a very simple image viewer and got a problem with the full screen.
Could you help me to write the code in the proper way, because now I get a black screen when I try to go to the full screen mode...

Here is the code:

I would appreciate the help as I am just started my adventure with JAVA...

Have you tried removing setIgnoreRepaint(true)?

[kamirru]

Yes, and it is quite the same issue, now I get a white screen. Maybe I try to load the picture wrong?

[Toll]

Hmm. Probably found the issue:

        Graphics gr=mainFrame.getGraphics();
        lPicture.setIcon(image);
        gr.fillRect(0,0,mainFrame.getWidth(),mainFrame.getHeight());

First you get the Graphics (okay, good to have), then display the picture (I assume; never really used JLabel and setIcon in combination)... and then paint the whole screen white. Assuming white is the default color. Try removing the last line there, or add a gr.drawImage after it (removing the lPicture bit).

[kamirru]

Do you mean this?

        Graphics gr=mainFrame.getGraphics();
        lPicture.setIcon(image);

or

        Graphics gr=mainFrame.getGraphics();
        gr.drawImage(null, WIDTH, WIDTH, WIDTH, WIDTH, rootPane);
        gr.fillRect(0,0,mainFrame.getWidth(),mainFrame.getHeight());

Both ways don`t work out... Or maybe I missunderstood you? How would you write the code?

[Toll]

You'd have to paint the picture after you clear the screen. So something along the lines of

Graphics gr=mainFrame.getGraphics();
gr.fillRect(0, 0, mainFrame.getWidth(), mainFrame.getHeight());
gr.drawImage(image, 0, 0, mainFrame.getWidth(), mainFrame.getHeight(), null);
gr.dispose();

(note: This is taken straight from my head, and I might be forgetting some things in it. YMMV)

[kamirru]

there is something wrong with the IMAGE part I think. Well I will think about it tomorow... there is 11 P.M. where I live....

gr.drawImage(image, 0, 0, mainFrame.getWidth(), mainFrame.getHeight(), null);

[camickr]

You should never use the getGraphics() method to do custom painting.

In your normal JFrame you use a JLabel with an Icon to display the image. Why not do the same thing with when using full screen mode? Also why not use a JFrame?

[Toll]

There we go; managed to get it working. First of all... You don't add the lPicture to your mainFrame; you essentially display an empty frame.

Second, you use setIgnoreRepaint(true), which makes it... well, not repaint, which means no objects would be drawn anyway.

Interestingly enough, it didn't make a difference if I had gr.fillRect in or not; probably because it repaints when it goes to fullscreen anyway. So you can remove your Graphics part entirely.

[kamirru]

I have re-written the Full Screen part and tried to do it as according to your tipps....

But I have got one more problem... When I open a picture, which is bigger than screen I am getting the scroll bars.... Is there a way to adjust the picture to the screen?

[DarrylBurke]

Read the API for Graphics and use a suitable overload of drawImage(...)

db

[kamirru]

Hi,

I tried once more time to read it, but the only thing I understood is I should use:

drawImage

public abstract boolean drawImage(Image img,
                                  int dx1,
                                  int dy1,
                                  int dx2,
                                  int dy2,
                                  int sx1,
                                  int sy1,
                                  int sx2,
                                  int sy2,
                                  ImageObserver observer)

    Draws as much of the specified area of the specified image as is currently available, scaling it on the fly to fit inside the specified area of the destination drawable surface. Transparent pixels do not affect whatever pixels are already there.

is that correct? But how do I get the coordinate of the corners?

P.S. sorry for the amount of question, but I am a beginner and somethimes do not really understand what API "says"...
