JTable Scrolling to a Specified Row Index
It's very easy, JTable has scrollRectToVisible method too. If you want, you can try something like this to make scrollpane go to to the bottom if a new record is added :
jTable1.getSelectionModel().setSelectionInterval(i, i);
jTable1.scrollRectToVisible(new Rectangle(jTable1.getCellRect(i, 0, true)));
Where i is last added record.
See this example : http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/javax.swing.table/Vis.html
update: the link is now obsolete, here is the code (from http://smi-protege.stanford.edu/repos/protege/protege-core/trunk/src/edu/stanford/smi/protege/util/ComponentUtilities.java )
public static void scrollToVisible(JTable table, int rowIndex, int vColIndex) {
if (!(table.getParent() instanceof JViewport)) {
return;
}
JViewport viewport = (JViewport)table.getParent();
// This rectangle is relative to the table where the
// northwest corner of cell (0,0) is always (0,0).
Rectangle rect = table.getCellRect(rowIndex, vColIndex, true);
// The location of the viewport relative to the table
Point pt = viewport.getViewPosition();
// Translate the cell location so that it is relative
// to the view, assuming the northwest corner of the
// view is (0,0)
rect.setLocation(rect.x-pt.x, rect.y-pt.y);
table.scrollRectToVisible(rect);
// Scroll the area into view
//viewport.scrollRectToVisible(rect);
}
JList internally use scrollRectToVisible and specify the coordinates to scroll to. I think you will have to recode a similar functionality for JTable.
