CS12420 Dress t he mannequi n 2013-2014

Supplementary Assessment CS12420

Chris Loftus and Lynda Thomas
This is due on Friday 22
nd
August by 3pm
and is worth 50% of your final mark for the module.
This assignment asks you to build a GUI that allows the user to dress the mannequin.
The GUI should be built directly using Swing. You may not use a GUI building tool.
Basic Requirements
The GUI should look something like this mock-up:



In other words there should be at least two menus, one Panel that holds images
(probably buttons with Icons on them), and another Panel where the mannequin is
clothed.
The buttons represent items of clothing you might add to the mannequin.
The panel that holds the clothes buttons should allow users to switch between cartoon
trousers, skirts, underwear, shirts, shoes, hats and blouses.
The user should be able to click on a clothing item and then on the mannequin and
have the image appear in that spot. It is important that clothing items can only be
attached to the right parts of the body (e.g. no pants over the head).
There is a lot of room for creativity here.
o You could have menu options that:
! Clear (start again)
! Load (the clothes previously selected for a mannequin)
! Save (the clothes selected for a mannequin)
! Remove (an item of clothing from the mannequin)
! Undo ..
Higher marks will be awarded for those who follow MVC principles.
IF YOU ARE ALSO RESITTING CS122 or CS121 then note that the basis of this
assignment is also that items of Clothing need to be stored and manipulated.
For WOW marks you could:
o Drag the images onto the drawing panel instead of clicking on buttons
o Select images and move them and resize them so that you dress the mannequin
properly i.e. no sloppy dressing.
o Have carousels for each clothing type (a vertical carousel is shown in the
example).
o Or something else that impresses us.
