public class JSlider extends JComponent implements SwingConstants, Accessible
The slider can show both
major tick marks, and minor tick marks between the major ones. The number of
values between the tick marks is controlled with
setMajorTickSpacing
and setMinorTickSpacing
.
Painting of tick marks is controlled by setPaintTicks
.
Sliders can also print text labels at regular intervals (or at
arbitrary locations) along the slider track. Painting of labels is
controlled by setLabelTable
and setPaintLabels
.
For further information and examples see How to Use Sliders, a section in The Java Tutorial.
Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.
Warning:
Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage
of all JavaBeansTM
has been added to the java.beans
package.

public boolean imageUpdate(Image img, int infoflags, int x, int y, int w, int h)
imageUpdate
method of an ImageObserver
is called when more information about an
image which had been previously requested using an asynchronous
routine such as the drawImage
method of
Graphics
becomes available.
See the definition of imageUpdate
for
more information on this method and its arguments.
The imageUpdate
method of Component
incrementally draws an image on the component as more of the bits
of the image are available.
If the system property awt.image.incrementaldraw
is missing or has the value true
, the image is
incrementally drawn. If the system property has any other value,
then the image is not drawn until it has been completely loaded.
Also, if incremental drawing is in effect, the value of the
system property awt.image.redrawrate
is interpreted
as an integer to give the maximum redraw rate, in milliseconds. If
the system property is missing or cannot be interpreted as an
integer, the redraw rate is once every 100ms.
The interpretation of the x
, y
,
width
, and height
arguments depends on
the value of the infoflags
argument.

For example, if you call createStandardLabels( 10 )
