com.jidesoft.swing.ArrowKeyNavigationSupport

This is a util class to support the four arrow keys navigation in any container. To use it, you can call new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport().install(container); The container could be any container. A typical use case is the button panel. By default we used it in {@link com.jidesoft.dialog.ButtonPanel} class to enable left/right/up/down key.

By default, all components will be navigable in the container but you can further define what components are navigable by using the constructor

 new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport(Class[] componentTypes)

where componentTypes is the list of the classes of the components that you would like to be navigable. For example, new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport(new Class[]{ AbstractButton.class }).install(container); to only allow any buttons (JButton, JideButton, JCheckBox, JRadioButton) etc.

You can also allow certain keys to be used. For example.

 new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport(new int[]{ KeyEvent.VK_LEFT, KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT}).install(container);

if only left and right keys are making sense to navigate in your container.

                ? ButtonPanelLayout.X_AXIS : ButtonPanelLayout.Y_AXIS;


        _layout = new ButtonPanelLayout(this, axis, _alignment, sizeConstrains, _defaultOrder, _defaultOppositeOrder, _defaultButtonGap, _defaultGroupGap);
        setLayout(_layout);


        new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport(new Class[]{AbstractButton.class}).install(this);
    }

                ? ButtonPanelLayout.X_AXIS : ButtonPanelLayout.Y_AXIS;


        _layout = new ButtonPanelLayout(this, axis, _alignment, sizeContraint, _defaultOrder, _defaultOppositeOrder, _defaultButtonGap, _defaultGroupGap);
        setLayout(_layout);


        new ArrowKeyNavigationSupport(new Class[]{AbstractButton.class}).install(this);
    }
