                                    Point location)
Convert a point in JList coordinates to the index of the cell at that location. Returns -1 if there's no cell the specified location.
Parameters:
location - The JList relative coordinates of the cell
Returns:
The index of the cell at location, or -1.

indexToLocation

public abstract Point indexToLocation(JList list,
                                      int index)
Returns the origin of the specified item in JList coordinates, null if index isn't valid.
Parameters:
index - The index of the JList cell.
Returns:
The origin of the index'th cell.

getCellBounds

public abstract Rectangle getCellBounds(JList list,
                                        int index1,
                                        int index2)
