 <h1>NetBeans Visual Library Tutorial for Java Applications</h1>

 <p>In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the main
  features provided by the <a href="http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-api-visual/overview-summary.html">NetBeans Visual Library API</a>.
 </p>

      <p><b>Contents</b></p>

    <p><img  src="../images/articles/69/netbeans-stamp7-8-9.png" class="stamp" width="114" height="114" alt="Content on this page applies to NetBeans IDE 6.5, 6.7, 6.8" title="Content on this page applies to NetBeans IDE 6.5, 6.7, 6.8"/></p>

 <li><a href="#widget">Creating the Widgets</a></li>
 <li><a href="#action">Enabling the Actions</a></li>
        </ul>

 <p><b>To follow this tutorial, you need the software and resources listed in the following
 table.</b></p>

     <table>
         <tbody>
             <tr>
                 <th class="tblheader" scope="col">Software or Resource</th>
                 <th class="tblheader" scope="col">Version Required</th>

             </tr>
         </tbody>
     </table>

   <p>Also, you will use 3 icons in the tutorial. You can right-click
    them here and save them locally, then copy them to the application's
    location, after you create the application later in this tutorial. Here are
    the 3 icons:</p>

    <p><img alt=""  src="../images/tutorials/vislib/red.gif"/>
        <img alt=""  src="../images/tutorials/vislib/blue.gif"/>
        <img alt=""  src="../images/tutorials/vislib/green.gif"/></p>

 <!-- ===================================================================================== -->

 <h2><a name="set"></a>Setting Up the Application</h2>

 <p>In this section, we use a wizard to create a Java application.</p>

 <ol>
     <li>Choose File &gt; New Project (Ctrl+Shift+N).
         Under Categories, select Java.
         Under Projects, select Java Application. Click Next.</li>
     <li><p>In the Name and Location panel, type <tt>VisLibDemo</tt> in
     the Project Name field:</p>
         <p><img alt="" style="border: 1px solid" src="../images/tutorials/vislib/vislib-java-1.png"/></p>
     <p>Click Finish.</p></li>
 </ol>

 <p>The IDE creates the <tt>VisLibDemo</tt> project.
  Add the three images above to the main package. You
  should now see this:</p>

 <p><img alt="" style="border: 1px solid" src="../images/tutorials/vislib/vislib-java-2.png"/></p>

 <h2><a name="add"></a>Adding the Libraries</h2>

 <p>In this section, we add the two libraries you need to work
  with the Visual Library.</p>

 <ol>
     <li>Right-click the Libraries node and choose "Add JAR/Folder".</li>
     <li>Browse to the installation directory of NetBeans IDE.</li>
     <li>In <tt>platform9/lib</tt>, choose <tt>org-openide-util.jar</tt>.</li>
     <li>In <tt>platform9/modules</tt>, choose <tt>org-netbeans-api-visual.jar</tt>.</li>
 </ol>

 <p>You now have the only two JARs you will need. You should
  now see this:</p>

 <p><img alt="" style="border: 1px solid" src="../images/tutorials/vislib/vislib-java-3.png"/></p>

 <h2><a name="container"></a>Creating the Container</h2>

 <p>In this section, we create the container
  that will hold the <tt>Scene</tt> from the
  Visual Library.</p>

 <ol>
     <li>Define <tt>Main.java</tt> as follows:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 public class Main  extends JPanel {

     <b>//Create the JFrame:</b>
     public static void main(String[] args) {
         JFrame frame = new JFrame("Graph test");
         frame.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(500, 400));
         frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
         frame.setContentPane(new Main());
         frame.pack();
         frame.setVisible(true);
     }

     public Main() {
         initComponents();
     }

     private void initComponents() {
         <b>//Set the layout:</b>
         setLayout(new BorderLayout());
         <b>//Create a JScrollPane:</b>
         JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
         <b>//Add the JScrollPane to the JPanel:</b>
         add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     }

 }
 </pre>

     </li>

     <li>Run the application and you should see a simple
      JFrame:

      <p><img alt="" style="border: 1px solid" src="../images/tutorials/vislib/vislib-java-4.png"/></p>

      </li>
 </ol>

 <p>Now that you have a <tt>JScrollPane</tt>, you're
  ready to create a scene!</p>

 <h2><a name="widget"></a>Creating the Widgets</h2>

 <p>In this section, we create a separate
  class containing our scene. We then
  hook it into our <tt>JPanel</tt>.</p>

 <ol>
     <li>Create a new class
      called <tt>GraphSceneImpl.java</tt>.</li>
     <li>Let it extend GraphScene&lt;String, String&gt;.</li>
     <li>Use the lightbulb at the side of the IDE
      to add import statements and abstract
      methods. You should now see this:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 package vislibdemo;

 import org.netbeans.api.visual.graph.GraphScene;
 import org.netbeans.api.visual.widget.Widget;

 public class GraphSceneImpl extends GraphScene&lt;String, String&gt; {

     @Override
     protected Widget attachNodeWidget(String arg0) {
         throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
     }

     @Override
     protected Widget attachEdgeWidget(String arg0) {
         throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
     }

     @Override
     protected void attachEdgeSourceAnchor(String arg0, String arg1, String arg2) {
         throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
     }

     @Override
     protected void attachEdgeTargetAnchor(String arg0, String arg1, String arg2) {
         throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
     }

 }
 </pre>
     </li>

     <li>We'll be using three <tt>LayerWidgets</tt>, which are
      like <tt>JGlassPanes</tt> in Swing. Declare them at the top
      of the class:
 <pre class=examplecode>
 private LayerWidget mainLayer;
 private LayerWidget connectionLayer;
 private LayerWidget interactionLayer;
 </pre>
      </li>
      <li>Create a constructor, initialize your <tt>LayerWidgets</tt>
       and add them to the <tt>Scene</tt>:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 public GraphSceneImpl() {
     mainLayer = new LayerWidget(this);
     connectionLayer = new LayerWidget(this);
     interactionLayer = new LayerWidget(this);
     addChild(mainLayer);
     addChild(connectionLayer);
     addChild(interactionLayer);
 }
 </pre></li>

 <li>Next, define what will happen when a new Widget
  is created:

 <pre class=examplecode>@Override
 protected Widget attachNodeWidget(String arg) {
     IconNodeWidget widget = new IconNodeWidget(this);
     if (arg.startsWith("1")) {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/red.gif"));
     } else if (arg.startsWith("2")) {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/green.gif"));
     } else {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/blue.gif"));
     }
     widget.setLabel(arg);
     mainLayer.addChild(widget);
     return widget;
 }</pre>

 <p class="tips"> The above is triggered whenever
  <tt>addNode</tt> is called on the scene.</p></li>

 <li>At the end of the constructor, trigger the
  method above 4 times:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 Widget w1 = addNode("1. Hammer");
 w1.setPreferredLocation(new Point(10, 100));
 Widget w2 = addNode("2. Saw");
 w2.setPreferredLocation(new Point(100, 250));
 Widget w3 = addNode("Nail");
 w3.setPreferredLocation(new Point(250, 250));
 Widget w4 = addNode("Bolt");
 w4.setPreferredLocation(new Point(250, 350));
 </pre>

 <p>Above, you have created four widgets, you
  have passed in a string, and you have set
  the widget's position. Now, the <tt>attachNodeWidget</tt>
  method is triggered, which you defined in
  the previous step. The <tt>arg</tt> parameter
  in the <tt>attachNodeWidget</tt> is the string
  you passed to <tt>addNode</tt>. Therefore,
  the string will set the label of the widget. Then
  the widget is added to the <tt>mainLayer</tt>.</p></li>

 <li>Back in the <tt>Main.java</tt> class, add the
  lines in bold to the <tt>initComponents</tt> method:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 private void initComponents() {
     //Set the layout:
     setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     //Create a JScrollPane:
     JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
     //Add the JScrollPane to the JPanel:
     add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     <b>//Create the GraphSceneImpl:
     GraphScene scene = new GraphSceneImpl();
     //Add it to the JScrollPane:
     scrollPane.setViewportView(scene.createView());
     //Add the SatellitView to the scene:
     add(scene.createSatelliteView(), BorderLayout.WEST);</b>
 }
 </pre></li>

 <li>Run the application and you should see this:
     <p><img alt=""  style="border: 1px solid" src="../images/tutorials/vislib/vislib-java-5.png"/></p>
 </li>

 </ol>

 <p>Now that you have a scene with some widgets,
  we can begin integrating some actions!</p>

 <h2><a name="action"></a>Enabling the Actions</h2>

 <p>In this section, we enable actions
  on the widgets we created previously.</p>

 <ol>
     <li>Change the <tt>attachNodeWidget</tt> by
      adding the lines in bold below:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 @Override
 protected Widget attachNodeWidget(String arg) {
     IconNodeWidget widget = new IconNodeWidget(this);
     if (arg.startsWith("1")) {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/red.gif"));
     } else if (arg.startsWith("2")) {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/green.gif"));
     } else {
         widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/blue.gif"));
     }
     <b>widget.getActions().addAction(
             ActionFactory.createAlignWithMoveAction(
             mainLayer, interactionLayer,
     ActionFactory.createDefaultAlignWithMoveDecorator()));</b>
     widget.setLabel(arg);
     mainLayer.addChild(widget);
     return widget;
 }
 </pre>
     </li>

 <li>Run the application. Drag a widget around
  and notice that alignment markers appear
  that help the user position a widget in
  relation to other widgets.</li>

     <li>Change the
      <tt>GraphSceneImpl</tt> class by
      adding the line below to the
      end of the constructor:

 <pre class=examplecode>
 getActions().addAction(ActionFactory.createZoomAction());
 </pre>
     </li>

 <li>Run the application. Scroll the middle
  mousebutton, or do whatever your operating
  system requires for "zooming", and notice
  that the whole scene increases/decreases
  in size.</li>

 </ol>

 <p>Now that you have a basic idea
  of the features that the Visual Library API
  provides, see the section called
  "NetBeans APIs for Visualizing Data"
  on the <a href="https://netbeans.org/kb/trails/platform.html">NetBeans Platform Learning Trail</a>.

	adding the lines in bold below:

	<pre class=examplecode>
	@Override
	protected Widget attachNodeWidget(String arg) {
	IconNodeWidget widget = new IconNodeWidget(this);
	if (arg.startsWith("1")) {
	widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/red.gif"));
	} else if (arg.startsWith("2")) {
	widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/green.gif"));
	} else {
	widget.setImage(ImageUtilities.loadImage("vislibdemo/blue.gif"));
	}
	<b>widget.getActions().addAction(
	ActionFactory.createAlignWithMoveAction(
	mainLayer, interactionLayer,
	ActionFactory.createDefaultAlignWithMoveDecorator()));</b>
	widget.setLabel(arg);
	mainLayer.addChild(widget);
	return widget;
	}
	</pre>
	</li>

	<li>Run the application. Drag a widget around
	and notice that alignment markers appear
	that help the user position a widget in
	relation to other widgets.</li>

	<li>Change the
	<tt>GraphSceneImpl</tt> class by
	adding the line below to the
	end of the constructor:

	<pre class=examplecode>
	getActions().addAction(ActionFactory.createZoomAction());
	</pre>
	</li>

	<li>Run the application. Scroll the middle
	mousebutton, or do whatever your operating
	system requires for "zooming", and notice
	that the whole scene increases/decreases
	in size.</li>

	</ol>

	<p>Now that you have a basic idea
	of the features that the Visual Library API
	provides, see the section called
	"NetBeans APIs for Visualizing Data"
