    <p>I'm writing a program that takes in some equations from the user. I want each constant to be entered in a <code>JTextField</code>, with each separated by a <code>JTextArea</code> (saying +x0, +x1, etc.). However, I can't quite get the formatting to work, and I'm not sure why. Here's the relevant code:</p> <pre><code>JTextField[][] dataTextFields = new JTextField[a+1][b+1]; JTextArea[][] dataLabels = new JTextArea[a][b+1]; for (int i = 0; i &lt; a+1; i++) { for (int j = 0; j &lt; b+1; j++) { dataTextFields[i][j] = new JTextField(10); dataTextFields[i][j].setLocation(5+70*i, 10+30*j); dataTextFields[i][j].setSize(40,35); dataEntryPanel.add(dataTextFields[i][j]); if (i &lt; a) { String build = "x" + Integer.toString(i) + "+"; dataLabels[i][j] = new JTextArea(build); dataLabels[i][j].setBackground(dataEntryPanel.getBackground()); dataLabels[i][j].setBounds(45+70*i,20+30*j,29,30); dataEntryPanel.add(dataLabels[i][j]); } } } </code></pre> <p>This creates <code>JTextFields</code> with <code>JTextAreas</code> 0f "+xi" in between them. However, when I run the applet, it looks like this:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/DnD7W.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>I can click on the labels and bring them to the foreground, it seems, resulting in this:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/IF1E8.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>I'd like for the labels to be visible without any effort from the user, obviously. Does JTextArea have some attribute that can be changed to bring this to the foreground? I'd really prefer not to add any more UI elements (panels, containers, etc). Thanks!</p>

    1. COI suspect that what is happening is that you've basically wrote your own layout manager by specifying exact bounds for each component. I doubt the Swing painting/rendering/layout code takes kindly to that since it's trying to delegate that to whatever layout manager is already present on the component. Have you tried using something like GridLayout or GridBagLayout to see if that solves your problem? Or maybe a series of FlowLayouts inside of a GridBag so that each flow renders directly under the previous, giving you rows of components like you have in your screenshot.

    3. CO@Sage oh, I misspoke. I actually ended up using JTextArea instead of JLabel; I couldn't get JLabels to show up at all.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
