>I was wondering what the consensus is on how a JTable should behave:
It should act like the spreadsheet or platform table he
normally uses.
The programmer can not know what this spreadsheet or platform is.
But often it might be Microsoft< Excel and Microsoft< Windows.
So:
The application, whenever possible, should offer a
+Windows L&F2 and
The Windows L&F should behave like Microsoft< Excel
in this regard.
>1. What does the user to do trigger a cell edit?
In Excel, a keyboard user would use [F2].
>What does he do to edit the next cell over?
I do not know the meaning of +to edit something over2,
so I will ignore +over2 and answer:
|What does he do to edit the next cell?
(If he is editing a cell right now: )Terminate the edit mode.
Move to the next cell.
Activate the edit mode as before.
>2. what does the user to do delete a row?
Select the row.
Issue a delete-row command via a menu.
>3. what does the user do to insert a new row?
Select a row.
Issue a insert-row command via a menu to insert
a row above the select row.
>Does he type it in place or does he type it somewhere
>else then it jumps into place?
In Excel, the above can be done via mouse, keyboard,
or programmatically, via a macro (in VBA).
