MouseListener problem 1

[229257]

I need to change properties of JButton when right clicked, need a Image change on the button, seem to have tryed mouselisteners and event listeners.

Any help would be great..

Check here (look down the screen for the functions which return a boolean based on which mouse-button was clicked)

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/events/mouselistener.html

...or go straight here:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs...isRightMouseButton(java.awt.event.MouseEvent)

Scan down the page for the link to the isRightMouseButton method or add the parenthetical (java.awt.event.MouseEvent) to the URL (the link above wouldn't include it).

'hope that helps.

This is the code

private class MyMouseAdapter extends MouseAdapter
{
MyMouseAdapter (){}

public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event)
{
if(event.isMetaDown())
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"RIGHT");
}
else
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"LEFT");
}
}
I want to access methods of the clicked JButton such as .setIcon.

Any advice

Take a look at

event.getSource()

That will return your Jbutton.

Cheers,

eg.

JButton button = (JButton)event.getSource();
button.setEnabled(false);
