开始自动编辑JTable中的单元格

Question

I am developing a restaurant billing system.

So here is the order panel interface

So now when i click on the menuTable the item code automatically gets added to kotTable

and when i press "Q" the focus shifts to quantity column in kotTable.

`

private void menuTableKeyTyped(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt)      


{



     if(evt.getKeyChar()=='Q') {

         kotTable.editCellAt(i-1,2);



     }
}  `

The problem is The cell doesnt start editing automatically. I need to click on that cell and then the editing starts. i tried using DefaultCellEditor , getInputMap() and many other. But I am bit confused and the problem is not solved.. Thanx

Answer 1

Using a key binding , you can map the Q key to the table's "startEditing" action. More examples may be found here .

table.getInputMap().put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_Q, 0), "startEditing");
