To clear all selections, use the List clearSelection() method in Java −
JList list = new JList(sports);
list.clearSelection();
Above, the elements in Sports array is a String array −
String sports[]= { "Cricket","Football","Hockey","Rugby"};
The following is an example to clear all selection in JList −
Example
package my;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class SwingDemo extends JFrame {
static JFrame frame;
static JList list;
public static void main(String[] args) {
frame = new JFrame("JList Demo");
SwingDemo s = new SwingDemo();
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
String sports[]= { "Cricket","Football","Hockey","Rugby"};
list = new JList(sports);
list.clearSelection();
panel.add(list);
frame.add(panel);
frame.setSize(550,300);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
Output
