POJList clearSelection() issue
text
Body
copied!<p>I have a problem with my two JList components. </p> <p>I created and placed on JFrame two JList components. I added listSelectionListeners to both of them that should unselect a selection of the other JList like so: (edit: To make as requested self-contained sample)</p> <pre><code> public class JListIssue { public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel(); frame.setContentPane(mainPanel); final JList jList1 = new JList(); mainPanel.add(jList1); final JList jList2 = new JList(); mainPanel.add(jList2); // Setting up models for both JList components to display example values jList1.setModel(new AbstractListModel() { String[] items = {"Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"}; public int getSize() { return items.length; } public Object getElementAt(int i) { return items[i]; } }); jList2.setModel(new AbstractListModel() { String[] items = {"Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"}; public int getSize() { return items.length; } public Object getElementAt(int i) { return items[i]; } }); // Adding listeners jList1.addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() { public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) { jList2.clearSelection(); } }); jList2.addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() { public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) { jList1.clearSelection(); } }); frame.pack(); frame.setVisible(true); } } </code></pre> <p>However, when it deselects the selection of one of those two lists I have to click two times to make a new selection. Because first time I click it sort of borders the item I want to select by it doesn't really selects it (confirmed by listSelectionListener) so I have to either move my mouse while holding the left mouse button during the first selection or click second time and then it actually selects the item.</p> <p>I find this behaviour wierd and I don't want it to behave like this. Any suggestion?</p>
