OverlayIcon – Displaying overlayed icons in JTree

Posted by on October 18, 2011 Comments Off

In companion to the CompoundIcon article, here is a class to allow you to build up icons with overlays that can be used anywhere, but specifically in JTree.

CompoundIcon – Displaying more than one icon in JTree

Posted by on October 18, 2011 Comments Off

I came across the requirement to display more than one Icon against the nodes in a Jtree. After several hours /days of building custom TreeCellRenderers and TreeCellEditors, inspiration hit. The JLabel can only display one icon, so lets override Icon to display more than one icon, but pretend it’s just a single Icon still.

The following Java class implements a CompoundIcon. Simply create an instance of it passing in the array of Icons you wish to be displayed. Use setSpaceSize to change the space between the icons when the are rendered. Use add, to append new icons if needed after the class has been constructed.

The instance can then be used wherever and Icon is needed.
