Brazil - Suggestion - Field Size AcctCode (20 characters min).

Question

Hello,
In Brazil would need 20 characters for the field AcctCode, this size would be perfect for any account accountant.
Example of an account that I use,  is less than 20 characters, but this size fits all

Answer 1

no solution - just a couple of comments:
- never ever change the calling table in a renderer, I mean really NEVER
- instead, listen to table events and resize the row height as appropriate
- JTextArea has a somehow weird prefSize calculation (forgot the details, so don't nail me :), so you have to manually set one dimension and then ask the area to calculate the other. In your renderer, you can do something like:
Component getTableCellRendererComponent(....) {
    int columnWidth = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(column).getWidth();
    textArea.setSize(columnWidth, Short.MAX_VALUE);
    ... here do the normal config
// then somewhere else, triggered by appropriate change events
void updateRowHeight(JTable table, int row) {
   int height = table.getRowHeight();
   foreach column {
         TableCellRenderer r = table.getCellRenderer(row, column);
         Component c = table.prepareCellRenderer(r, row, column);
         height = Math.max(height, c.getPreferredSize().height);
   table.setRowHeight(row, height);
} HTH - ein bißchen wenigstens :-)
