Sets the name for this format panel.

Parameters:

s - the new name for this formatpanel.

containsPreview

public boolean containsPreview()

Returns true, if this format panel contains its own preview

Returns:

true, if this format panel contains its own preview

getPreview

public abstract AbstractPreview getPreview()

Returns an AbstractPreview instance used by this panel or null, if no such Preview is in use.

Returns:

a Preview implementation or null.

getFormat

public abstract Format getFormat()
