Thread Subject: Putting checkboxes in only some rows of a uitable

Hello,
I'm trying to create something similar to the property
editor for a structure. I can create a uitable(old style -
using R2006b) and set the columns to the fieldnames and
values (similar to the ipttable function). However I'd like
to show the fields that are boolean values as check boxes.
It seems that matlab/java really wants the whole column to
be the same( textbox, combo, checkbox...). Is there a way
to give individual cells different renderers (e.g cell(1,1)
to be a textbox, cell(2,1) to be a check and so on down the
column.

Or is the uitable/JTable really the wrong component for
this?

Thanks in advance for your assistance
Matt

It seems that I have the same problem with you.
I've created a JTable to display a property list(property name and value), some row should be a combo and some checkbox. But in JTable it is only allowed to set the cellEditor for one column, so I' like to use a indirect way. That is by double mouse click on a table cell, it will pop up a combo box and let you select the value. However, I can not find a callback function which can handle the event correctly without overriding the java class. If use such as "ValueChangedCallback" of selection listener or "PropertyChangeCallback" of JTable, the change effect of the cellEditor will be applied only when you click on a next cell.
Has anyone similar experience or any alternative suggestion?
Thank you for your help!
