This section discusses problems that you might encounter when using data transfer.
Problem: My drag gesture recognizer is not working properly with table/list/tree/text.
Do not use your own drag gesture recognizers with these components. Use setDragEnabled(true)
and a TransferHandler
.
Problem: I am unable to drop data onto my empty JTable
.
You need to call setFillsViewportHeight(true)
on the table. See
