Help:How to make static text in JTextField??

How to make a text to be displayed initially on a JTextField, yet we can not change the text (so the text
is static)?
The other question:
How to make an input mask so that a JTextField
has input pattern of XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
(which is the mask of IP Address) ??
What I know that limiting input in JTextField can be done
by extending PlainDocument....what about the cases above??
Please reply if you know.
Thanks a lot,
Ted.

For the first question, just call setEditable(false).

  • How to make partial text in JTextField in different color

    I have a JTextField for user input but need to initially display something in one color and whatever user types in will be appended to this initial text with different color. I appreciate any help.

    you need a component that can be set up for styled text
    like JTextPane possibly or like that.
    There is a styled text example in demos i think
    and possibly this will help

    Hi there,
    Download a piece of software called TinkerTool - that might just solve your problem. I have used it myself to change the system fonts on my iMac. It is software and not an app.
    Good wishes,

  • How to make a text "drawer" in iWeb

    Does anyone know how to make a text "drawer" in iWeb? What I mean is when you click on a hyperlink to read more text, but instead of opening up a new page, it makes the text appear below the link on the same page.

    Anything fancy with iWeb has to be done in the HTML Snippet or after publishing the page.
    Find the code for the drawer, apply it and show us the result.
    Perhaps not the drawer you had in mind but this is something near:

    Hello, experiment with Object - Field tab. Do you have your text field with "allow multiple lines" checked? I guess so. And what about the field format? Plain text or Rich text? Please try:)) Regards, Otto

  • How to make indented text in Muse

    How to: make indented text in Muse, like a list with bullits

    I read on another post that you can do ALT 0149 (WIN) and it will create a bullet in Muse.  I tried ALT+0149 and then ALT then 0149 and neither one created a bullet so I must not be understanding the key shortcuts to create the bullet.
    The above video is not captioned (I'm deaf) so I don't understand how he's creating the bullets.  Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong?
    PS - when videos are made, it would be nice if you brought some kind of graphic on saying (for example) "Press the [whatever] key" so deaf people can see what's happening.

  • Anyone know how to make vertical text in a table in keynote?

    anyone know how to make vertical text in a table in keynote?

    Just to add a bit more about this question. I have seen in other related questions that this feature (vertical text) is not available in (apparently) the whole iWork09. someone even said that it should be asked to the developers, so they include this feature in iWork10. I find this issue a bit sad. This feature has been present in msOffice since a while, and at least for me, this is quite important for my work. It is also apparently not possible to have different page orientation in the same document, meaning portrait and landscape, so one can have wide tables in a whole page, for example. If this is true, it is again sad, and I just cannot understand why such a basic feature is not available in an already 09 version. I am using only the trial version of iWork, but already in the first day I have discovered that I actually cannot do what I was used to. Again sadly I (and many others I guess) will have to stick to Office until the mac software is fully developed.

  • Please help : How to make the anomalistic table just like below?

    Hi all,
    How to make the anomalistic table just like below? Anyone can give the way detail or thoughtway ?
    http://61.132.17.188/webber/table.gif

    This is just a suggestion.
    If you put your "JTable" in a "JScrollPane", then you can add any "java.awt.Component" to the corner of the "JScrollPane" -- using the "setCorner()" method (of "JScrollPane").
    I would suggest making a custon "JPanel" and overriding its "paintComponent()" method to draw a diagonal line (and the required text) on it.
    You can find out more about how to do this from the links I provided in my first reply.
    Hope this helps.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

  • How to make a text becoming more and more visible?

    Maybe I didn't use google well, but I didn't find anything in the internet what could solve my question.
    I basically want to work with a white background, where a text is on which becomes more and more visible the more it comes closer to the bottom. The tricky thing is, it's for a website, so it has to be responsive for smartphones or tablets for example (first idea: put the white background layer to the front like it makes the text behind it more and more visible/invisible?). Any ideas how to solve that? Would be so great to know.

    I'm not sure what it means to "be responsive for smartphones or tablets"...  People put complex graphics on those things all the time.  They have unprecedented power.
    Photoshop can help you do what you're describing.  What you want is no more complex than putting a gradient mask on a layer so as to create partial transparency.  You could have fading text (as a graphic) or a fading solid color fill that would overlay text rendered by a browser.
    Just some graphic ideas...
    Save as a PNG-24 to get partial transparency that a browser can render.

  • How to make a text variable (running header - character) resize a text frame?

    I have successfully been able to get a metadata text variable to auto-resize a text frame, but when I change the text variable to a running header-character/paragraph variable, the text frame does not resize - in fact it gets smaller and squashes the text.
    Surely if Indesign can handle one kind of variable it should handle another??
    Please help!

    Thanks all.
    Will- I tried adding another character to the text box but this made no difference.
    Eugene- I'm trying to avoid the purchase of any 3rd party plugins due to budget constraints.
    I realised that all I needed to do was use a wide paragraph rule to emulate a box behind the text, and make the text box long enough to hold all possible variables.
    One other issue has now cropped up, the running header (character) only grabs the text up to the first return, but I need it to grab all text formatted with the Character Style (2-3 lines max).
    I require a forced line break in the title (where the header is being pulled from) as it has a paragraph rule style attached, requiring a full return for each line of the title.
    Any ideas?
