JComboBox determine if Items are/aren't visible in drop-down list

I tried to determime for every Items if are or not visible in the JViewPort from JComboBox drop-down list

(my Friday OT)

EDIT: I don't want to implements MouseListener for Repeats events to System.out.print(...)

isn't possible pass JComboBox with JList, declared by JCombo#Model by using SwingUtilities http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/SwingUtilities.html , but this APi is out of my...

        fontsBox = new JComboBox(numbers);
        fontsBox.setSelectedItem(0);
        fontsBox.addItemListener(new ItemListener() {

            if ((comp instanceof JPopupMenu)) {
                final JList list = new JList(fontsBox.getModel());
                final JPopupMenu popup = (JPopupMenu) comp;

                final JViewport viewport = scrollPane.getViewport();
                final Rectangle rect = popup.getVisibleRect();
                Point pt = viewport.getViewPosition();
                for (int i = 0; i < list.getModel().getSize(); i++) {
                    pt = list.indexToLocation(i);
                    System.out.print(pt + " - ");
                    rect.setLocation(rect.x - pt.x, rect.y - pt.y);
                    System.out.println(new Rectangle(viewport.getExtentSize()).contains(rect));
                }
            }
        }
    }

    public static void main(String arg[]) {
        java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

            @Override
            public void run() {

            }

Basically, you'r looking for list.locationToIndex (if I understood you correctly), something like

    Accessible a = fontsBox.getUI().getAccessibleChild(fontsBox, 0);
    if (a instanceof javax.swing.plaf.basic.ComboPopup) {
        JList list = ((javax.swing.plaf.basic.ComboPopup)a).getList();
        Rectangle rect = list.getVisibleRect();
        int first = list.locationToIndex(rect.getLocation());
        // similar for last, at the lower edge of the visible rect, left as exercise <g>
        // Edit: as of @Boro's comment, last is easier calculated with maxRowCount
        int last = first + fontsBox.getMaximumRowCount() - 1;
        ....

BTW, yet another property that's not passed on to the list: would have expected

   list.getVisibleRowCount() == combo.getMaximumRowCount()   

To answer the question: all items between first/last, inclusively, are visible, all items above first and below last not visible ;-)

If it goes about getting the elements which are visible in the your combobox I have an algorithm here which you could use

                Point pt = viewport.getViewPosition();
                int rowCount = fontsBox.getMaximumRowCount();
                int rowsize = viewport.getSize().height / rowCount;
                System.out.println("viewport.getHeight()="+ viewport.getHeight()
                        +"; viewport.getViewSize().getHeight()="+ viewport.getViewSize().getHeight()
                        +"; rowsize=" + rowsize+"; pt="+pt);                
                int firstVisibleElementIndex = pt.y/rowsize;
                int lastVisibleElementIndex = firstVisibleElementIndex + (rowCount-1);
                System.out.println("firstVisibleElementIndex="+ firstVisibleElementIndex
                        +"; lastVisibleElementIndex="+lastVisibleElementIndex);

Check it out it returns you first and last visible element then it is up to you what you want to to with them.

EDIT: This is just a quick (& nasty) solution build on top of the given example. For a better solution please see @kleopatra 's solution.

Changing the listener from ItemListener to ActionListener seems to give the expected results, both for arrow keys and clicking:

fontsBox.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

    @Override
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
         manItemInCombo();
    }
});

thank you, but your assumptions weren't correct, here is output, still I can't test if ViewPort contains Item or not correctly, no way, I must return to my original declaration, because that show first visible Item correctly phaaaa

EDIT thanks @ Anthony Accioly for correct sugestion Changing the listener from ItemListener to ActionListener

wrong outPut from ItemListener

1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = two, Value = one, two, three//ok
1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = three, Value = one, two, three//ok
1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = four, Value = one, two, three//wrong
1stIndex = 1, LastIndex = 3, SelectedItem1 = five, Value = two, three, four//wrong
1stIndex = 2, LastIndex = 4, SelectedItem1 = six, Value = three, four, five//wrong
1stIndex = 3, LastIndex = 5, SelectedItem1 = seven, Value = four, five, six//wrong
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = six, Value = five, six, seven//ok
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = five, Value = five, six, seven//ok
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = four, Value = five, six, seven//wrong
1stIndex = 3, LastIndex = 5, SelectedItem1 = three, Value = four, five, six//wrong
1stIndex = 2, LastIndex = 4, SelectedItem1 = two, Value = three, four, five//wrong
1stIndex = 1, LastIndex = 3, SelectedItem1 = one, Value = two, three, four//wrong

and expected output from ActionListener

1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = two, Value = one, two, three
1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = three, Value = one, two, three
1stIndex = 1, LastIndex = 3, SelectedItem1 = four, Value = two, three, four
1stIndex = 2, LastIndex = 4, SelectedItem1 = five, Value = three, four, five
1stIndex = 3, LastIndex = 5, SelectedItem1 = six, Value = four, five, six
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = seven, Value = five, six, seven
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = six, Value = five, six, seven
1stIndex = 4, LastIndex = 6, SelectedItem1 = five, Value = five, six, seven
1stIndex = 3, LastIndex = 5, SelectedItem1 = four, Value = four, five, six
1stIndex = 2, LastIndex = 4, SelectedItem1 = three, Value = three, four, five
1stIndex = 1, LastIndex = 3, SelectedItem1 = two, Value = two, three, four
1stIndex = 0, LastIndex = 2, SelectedItem1 = one, Value = one, two, three
