How to change the name of the JFileChooser dialog box

Question

I used JFileChooser.showOpenDialog to open a dialog box. When it is displayed, "open" appears in the title bar of the dialog box. I want to change it as "Add" because my code is for adding a new file. Someone will tell me how to do this. Thanks in advance.

There is my dialog box.

Answer 1

JFileChooser showOpenDialog does not give you the ability to change the title of the dialog box (see docs ). For this you need to use some more code. The sample code in the documentation is close:

JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(); FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter( "JPG & GIF Images", "jpg", "gif"); chooser.setFileFilter(filter); chooser.setDialogTitle("Add new file"); int returnVal = chooser.showOpenDialog(parent); 

Answer 2

You can customize the dialog before the filter.

 JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(); fc.setDialogTitle("Title"); fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
