Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Bold The Text In A Text Area
Oct 13, 2014
I am building a chat server/client and would like to have it so when a user sends a message, the message pops up in the main chat area beside their name, which I would like to be in bold font. Something like "Alan: Hello, how are you?". I can't find a way to do this with a text area or on a string. Do any swing components suitable for use as text areas support bolding of certain sections of the string that you will set to it?
This is the code that I wrote but I have two problem with two buttons one of them ... I want to delete the selected text inside the text Area which represented as b[8] and the other button that I want to select parts of the texts which represented as b[0]....
I'm supposed to write a GUI application letting the user enter a file on the text field and display its hex representation in a text area and vice versa.
Here's my code:
/* * To change this license header, choose License Headers in Project Properties. * To change this template file, choose Tools | Templates * and open the template in the editor. */ package hexconvertor; import java.util.*; import java.io.*; public class HexConvertor extends javax.swing.JFrame {
I am working on a personal project and want to create a text editor to write my code. I am wondering how could I read the last input from the user and if say it was an open curly brace {, then like netbean's my editor will supply the closing curly brace. My java experience is limited but I have tried to read key board input and a few other options that did not work.
This shows a nice text area and an input field underneath it.The getGameHistory() method just returns a long string detailing the current game.Is there a way of just showing the text area without the input field underneath?Can the text area also be used for input instead?
package midtermproject; import java.util.Scanner; //Using for scanner class import java.awt.Font; //Using for bold public class MidtermProject { /** * @param args the command line arguments */ public static void main(String[] args, String setBoldText) {
[code]....
I need the console to display BOLD for the movie title only. I imported java.awt but I do not know what else or how else to do it. I have looked in my book, online, youtube, yahoo answers and I want to figure this out. I found an answer on here that someone talked about java.awt but did not specific what.
I have a button that bolds all the text in the main div. I am trying to get it to change back to the normal text after it has been bolded. But I cant figure it out. It bolds the text and changes button value when button value is "Bold", but when button value "UnBold" and user clicks button the text does not unbold. Here is my function.
function boldDiv() { var button = document.getElementById("firstbtn"); var oldHtml = document.getElementById('main').innerHTML;
I have a textField in which I have text in. The text is enter customer name. I would like for this text to disappear whenever the user clicks on the textField to enter a customer name. I am using the automated swing gui builder in NetBeans. Is their some sort of feature for this under properties of the text field? If not then what are my other options?
I'm working on a simple text editor, and I'm currently saving the contents of my JTextPane in a file using an HTMLEditorKit (text is a JTextPane):
private void save() throws IOException { int returnVal = fc.showSaveDialog(window); if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { StyledDocument doc = (StyledDocument)text.getDocument(); HTMLEditorKit kit = new HTMLEditorKit(); BufferedOutputStream out;
[Code] ....
The problem I'm having is that after opening a file that I saved, it does not display (if I disable text/html, it displays the entire html code, but when I re-enable it, nothing displays at all.) Am I loading it wrong, or am I setting the JTextPane's text incorrectly? Or is it, perhaps, another error that I didn't catch?
how to put the output the the text area this is the code .
/* * To change this license header, choose License Headers in Project Properties. * To change this template file, choose Tools | Templates * and open the template in the editor. */ package interns; /** * * @author JosephP */ import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.event.*; import java.awt.*;
I have a requirement where in the content of the text area is dynamically populated from the database. I am able to successfully retrieve and display the data on the text area.
However when the content is too large, I am not able to dynamically set the height of the text area. When I try to display the same as a label, the display is flawless, dynamically sets the height as per the content. So, I tried to create a label, with same content and dynamically bind the height to the preferred height as below, but it doesn't work.
// Generate User Note Description TextArea textArea = new TextArea(); Label text = new Label();
// SETTING THE TEXT TO A LABEL TO RETRIEVE THE HEIGHT text.setText(usrNotes.getNote().trim());
How can I read a text file present in my local directory say (C://test.txt) , iterate and populate the values of test.txt into a text area of the JSP page?
Contents in the test.txt file: username:test password:test123 domain:test321 DBname:testDB
I have problem with my simple program. I tried put some text in my text area using button1 but textListener in RighButtons is always null and it's give me NullPointerException.
WriteToArea - interface public interface WriteToArea { public void add_a(String text); } BaseFrame public class BaseFrame extends JFrame{
In my application, some text should be added to a text area in response to a click on a button. So as an action listener to this class, I made another class which implements the ActionListener.
Inside this class, I have obtained the text which I want to be added to the text area. But the text area is in another class and for the action listener I wrote another class.
Now the problem is that when I try to add the text to the text area by the following line of code, it says that textArea_1 can not be resolved or is not a field.
Java Code:
ParentPanel.textArea_1.setText("Name:"+ncrarray[0]+" Code:"+ncrarray[1]+" Rank:"+ncrarray[2]); mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); What should I do about it?
Even if I try to write a method like the following in the class in which the text area is created, it gives the same error.
Java Code:
public void printTextArea(String text) { textArea_1.setText(text); } mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
The text area is present inside a constructor of the class. I am writing the method outside the constructor (ofcourse).
I have to write a gui program where I can enter a file name and then it gets displayed in a text area when I click Open. Conceptually, I do not get this. I was thinking of appending the text file into a string or something, but I guess I'm confused on how it all works and how I can open the text file. Not asking for the code, but just a compass or something.
01. pickup the selected text file and read the line by line and output the text in to visual text pane.
what i did:.
01. I wrote code that read the text file and output in to jave console/ also some of the interface.
the code read txt file:
Java Code:
String fileName = "C:/Users/lakshan/Desktop/lawyer.txt"; File textFile = new File(fileName); Scanner in = new Scanner (textFile); while(in.hasNextLine()){
[code]....
so it will read any text file dynamically and output to the text pane in interface. I think scanner code must be execute after the select the file from the browser and set the scanned result in to variable. then later out put the var as string in some jswing component?
Write a program that reads in a line of text and then outputs that line of text first in all uppercase letters and then in all lowercase letters.
INPUT and PROMPTS. The program prompts for a line of text as follows: "Enter the text: " and then reads in an entire line of text as a String .
OUTPUT . There are four lines of output . The first line is "The text in all upper case is: ". The second line is the line that was read in, displayed in all uppercase. The third line is "The text in all lower case is: " and the fourth line is the original line that was read in, displayed in all lowercase.
CLASS NAMES. Your program class should be called ShoutAndWhisper.
This is what I have so far:
import java.util.Scanner; public class ShoutAndWhisper { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scannerObject = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.println("Enter the text: "); scannerObject.next(); System.out.println("The text in all upper case is: ");
I'm using JBoss 7.1.1.Final. I'm writing a Spring 3.1.1.RELEASE web application and have a massive amount (~5MB) of text output to send to the browser. I would like the browser to display the output as it is generated, but right now, the browser only displays everything after the servlet's doGet method completes. Here's my method …
I am trying to read a text file into Java and split the text into tokens. Eventually I want to be able to count the number of instances of a specific word. However, at this point, when I run the file, all I get is the location of the file rather than the text in the file.
import java.util.*; import java.io.*; public class textTest3 { /** * Prints the number of words in a given file * * @param args * @throws IOException */
if(Directory.getText().matches("")){ JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please search for the directory"); } else if(fileName.getText().matches("")){

This is actually my question:
Java Code:

I recently encountered a scenario where attempting to set the text for an SWT TableColumn widget fails with an InvocationTargetException / SWTError and the message "Cannot set text". There is nothing special about the column text, i.e. no special characters or mnemonics. It just fails. The same code works for other scenarios.
I took a look at the SWT source for the TableColumn class and found only one place where the "Cannot set text" error is thrown - see code fragment below - but I cannot see why I should have encountered a problem.
/* * Bug in Windows. When a column header contains a mnemonic character, Windows does not measure the text properly. This causes '...' to always appear at the end of the text. The fix is to remove mnemonic characters and replace doubled mnemonics with spaces. */

I am in the middle of creating a chess application, and am currently working on laying out a list of moves on the right of the actual board. Specifically, I want to have a JLabel that says "moves" on top of a JList that contains the moves, on top of two buttons, labeled "<" and ">" respectively, to which I will eventually add functionality to take back and un-take back moves. Currently I have the first two parts down, but when I add my buttons,the other components are getting messed up.
I have all of these things in a vertical BoxLayout inside of a JPanel with a fixed width of 70, and a height that varies according to the size of the window (I overrode the getPreferredSize method of the JPanel). The two buttons are within their own JPanel with a grid layout with one row and two columns. Then I basically just add the moves list label, the movesList, and the panel housing the buttons to the larger panel, in that order.
However, I am encountering two problems. One, the buttons display the text "... " instead of "<" and ">" as if there is not enough room, although I'm pretty sure three periods take up more space than one less than or more than sign. The next is that, without the buttons at the bottom, the label reading "moves" is appropriately centered (or left aligned, I can't tell which) over the movesList, and you can read its whole text. However, when I add in the buttons at the bottom, the label of the top shifts over to the right and then reads "mov..." because it has run out of room.
Here is my code:
//move list movesListLabel = new JLabel("Moves"); //the components for the actual movesList come from another class with an object called pen, but I don't think this is the problem listModel = pen.getListModel(); JList movesList = pen.getMovesList(); JScrollPane listScroller = pen.getMovesListScrollPane();
