    <p>I am attempting to create a JTree where a node has several components: a JPanel that holds a JCheckBox, followed by a JLabel, then a JComboBox. I have attached the code at the bottom if one wishes to run it. Fortunately the JTree correctly renders the components. However when I click on the JComboBox, the node disappears; if I click on the JCheckBox, it works fine. It seems that I am doing something wrong with how the TreeCellEditor is being set up. How could I resolve this issue? Am I going beyond the capabilities of JTree?</p> <p>Here's a quick overview of the code I have posted below.</p> <ul> <li>The class <code>EntityListDialog</code> merely creates the user interface. It is not useful to understand it other than the <code>createTree</code> method.</li> <li><code>Node</code> is the data structure that holds information about each node in the JTree. All <code>Node</code>s have a <code>name</code>, but <code>samples</code> may be null or an empty array. This should be evident by looking at <code>EntityListDialog</code>'s <code>createTree</code> method. The <code>name</code> is used as the text of the JCheckBox. If <code>samples</code> is non-empty, it is used as the contents of the JCheckBox.</li> <li><code>NodeWithSamplesRenderer</code> renders <code>Node</code>s whose <code>sample</code>s are non-empty. It creates the complicated user interface with the JPanel consisting of the JCheckBox and the JComboBox.</li> <li><code>NodeWithoutSamplesRenderer</code> creates just a JCheckBox when <code>samples</code> is empty.</li> <li><code>RendererDispatcher</code> decides whether to use a <code>NodeWithSamplesRenderer</code> or a <code>NodeWithoutSamplesRenderer</code>. This entirely depends on whether <code>Node</code> has a non-empty <code>samples</code> member or not. It essentially functions as a means for the <code>NodeWith</code>*<code>SamplesRenderer</code> to plug into the JTree.</li> </ul> <p>Code listing:</p> <pre><code>import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*;

    2. COThanks for reformatting it. I didn't understand why the code was showing up in nested scroll panes. Was the problem that I put the curly braces on their own lines?

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.
