All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<OverrunStyle>

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
CENTER_ELLIPSIS	Trims out the center of the string being displayed and replaces the middle three characters with "...".
CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS	Same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS but ensures that the "..." occurs between full words.
CLIP	Any text which exceeds the bounds of the label will be clipped.
ELLIPSIS	If the text of the label exceeds the bounds of the label, then the last three characters which can be displayed will be "...".
LEADING_ELLIPSIS	Same as ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end
LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS	Same as WORD_ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end
WORD_ELLIPSIS	Same as ELLIPSIS, but first removes any partial words at the label boundary and then applies the ellipsis.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static OverrunStyle	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static OverrunStyle[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

CLIP

public static final OverrunStyle CLIP

Any text which exceeds the bounds of the label will be clipped.

ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle ELLIPSIS

If the text of the label exceeds the bounds of the label, then the last three characters which can be displayed will be "...". If the label is too short to even display that, then only as many "." as possible will be shown.

WORD_ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle WORD_ELLIPSIS

Same as ELLIPSIS, but first removes any partial words at the label boundary and then applies the ellipsis. This ensures that the last characters displayed prior to the ellipsis are part of a full word. Where a full word cannot be displayed, this acts like ELLIPSIS and displays as many characters as possible.

CENTER_ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle CENTER_ELLIPSIS

Trims out the center of the string being displayed and replaces the middle three characters with "...". The first and last characters of the string are always displayed in the label, unless the label becomes so short that it cannot display anything other than the ellipsis.

CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS

Same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS but ensures that the "..." occurs between full words. If the label becomes so short that it is not possible to trim any additional words, then partial words are displayed and this behaves the same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS

LEADING_ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle LEADING_ELLIPSIS

Same as ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end

LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS

public static final OverrunStyle LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS

Same as WORD_ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end

Method Detail

values

public static OverrunStyle[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (OverrunStyle c : OverrunStyle.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static OverrunStyle valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
