JTextPane lineWrap at 4096. Changeable?
JTextPane seems to be wrapping a single line after 4096 characters. I tried to look at the JTextPane/JEditorPane classes source code but cant find anything that defines that. Anyone knows where it is defined so I can set it higher? thanks.
Because I want to color text. I can highlight with JTextArea but just one character, not multiple. I can also use html headers but that complicates my algorithm.

How to gettext from textarea in a new line when the linewrap option is true
Hello everyone..
I wanted to know that how get we get text from the Jtextarea when the linewrap option is set to true..
for example..
Lets say my textarea can have 50 chars without any kind of wrap..
now when the 51 st char is pressed or entered it automatically goes to the next line..
now i want to get the text from the textarea and display it in the exact fashion as it is in the textarea..
Please help me out in this case..This can help, if not, take a JTextPane. In my program,
I get all lines (including wrapped ones) with that
I hope, there are no indexing or so errors, I had to adapt my code
a bit.
View root =
myJTextComponent.getUI().getRootView(myJTextComponent).getView(0);
int number_of_paragraphs = root.getViewCount();
int linestart, lineend;
String line;
for(int paragraphindex = 0; paragraphindex< number_of_paragraphs;
paragraphindex++)
for(int line_in_paragaph = 0; line_in_paragraph <
root.getView(paragraphindex).getViewCount(); line_in_paragraph++)
linestart = root.getView(paragraphindex).getView(line_in_paragraph).getStartOffset();
lineend=
root.getView(paragraphindex).getView(line_in_paragraph).getEndOffset();
try
line = myJTextComponent.getDocument().getText(linestart,
lineend-linestart);

ComponentView does not redraw component in JTextPane Cell Rend
We have created a JTable implementation that uses JTextPanes as cell renderers/editors so that text styles and the like are available. We want insert a component, such as a JButton, into the JTextPane. However, the component is only visible when the cell is in an editable state. In the renderer, the ComponentView looks like it has set aside the space where the component is to be, but the component is not visible.
I have looked at this problem for several days now, and have only determined that this seems to be occuring at a low level. What I have found is that the ButtonUI's update method is not called when the document is in the cell renderer, while it seems called continuously in the cell editor (on each caret blink).
Does anybody have any insight as to the problem? I have submitted this as a bug to Sun but wanted to find out if anybody else has come across anything similar to this.
Thank for any help.

Here is sample code to reproduce the problem:
// Main Class
* Main frame for the testing of the component not painting. This simplifies
* an issue we have come across when trying to set up using a JTextPane as a
* renderer/editor as the cells in a table.
* Under these conditions we have found that a component inserted into the JTextPanes document
* only appears in the editing state of the cell, whereas the rendering state leaves
* the spacing for the component but does not make it visible.
* Note that creating a JTextPane with the one of these documents will show the component,
* even when not editing.

Problem with JTextPane and StateInvariantError
Hi. I am having a problem with JTextPanes and changing only certain text to bold. I am writing a chat program and would like to allow users to make certain text in their entries bold. The best way I can think of to do this is to add <b> and </b> tags to the beginning and end of any text that is to be bold. When the other client receives the message, the program will take out all of the <b> and </b> tags and display any text between them as bold (or italic with <i> and </i>). I've searched the forums a lot and figured out several ways to make the text bold, and several ways to determine which text is bold before sending the text, but none that work together. Currently, I add the bold tags with this code: (note: messageDoc is a StyledDocument and messageText is a JTextPane)
public String getMessageText() {
String text = null;
boolean bold = false, italic = false;
for (int i = 0; i < messageDoc.getLength(); i++) {
messageText.setCaretPosition(i);
if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && !bold) {
bold = true;
if (text != null) {
text = text + "<b>";
else {
text = "<b>";
else if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
// Do nothing
else if (!StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
bold = false;
if (text != null) {
text = text + "</b>";
else {
text = "</b>";
try {
if (text != null) {
text = text + messageDoc.getText(i,1);
else {
text = messageDoc.getText(i, 1);
catch (BadLocationException e) {
System.out.println("An error occurred while getting the text from the message document");
e.printStackTrace();
return text;
} // end getMessageText()When the message is sent to the other client, the program searches through the received message and changes the text between the bold tags to bold. This seems as if it should work, but as soon as I click on the bold button, I get a StateInvariantError. The code for my button is:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
if (evt.getSource() == bold) {
MutableAttributeSet bold = new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setBold(bold, true);
messageText.getStyledDocument().setCharacterAttributes(messageText.getSelectionStart(), messageText.getSelectionStart() - messageText.getSelectionEnd() - 1, bold, false);
} //end actionPerformed()Can anyone help me to figure out why this error is being thrown? I have searched for a while to figure out this way of doing what I'm trying to do and I've found out that a StateInvariantError has been reported as a bug in several different circumstances but not in relation to this. Or, if there is a better way to add and check the style of the text that would be great as well. Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance.Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
Can't tell from you code what the problem is because I don't know the context of how each method is invoked. But it would seem like you are trying to query the data in the Document while the Document is being updated. Try wrapping the getMessageText() method is a SwingUtilities.invokeLater().
There is no need to write custom code for a Bold Action you can just use:
JButton bold = new JButton( new StyledEditorKit.BoldAction() );Also your code to build the text String is not very efficient. You should not be using string concatenation to append text to the string. You should be using a StringBuffer or StringBuilder. -
How to give styles to my HTMLDocument inside a JTextPane?
I have a JTextPane with a HTMLDocument attached to it. How can I style the text which is typed in? For example I want to set a larger font. How can I do this in my example?
Another problem is that when I hit the alignment buttons the text is actually aligned according to the hit button but the JEditorPane doesn't show the text correctly. It also doesn't enter a line feed when typing ENTER key.
Can someone help me on this please?

PO Changeability / Release Strategy / BAPI_PO_RELEASE Issue
Hello everyone,
I've run into an interesting problem:
We have defined several PO release strategies. Most of these work in the traditional manner, requiring manual approval by a given user. One release strategy, "99," gets picked up by a batch job and released automatically using BAPI_PO_RELEASE. Either way, the release indicator for all released PO's is set to "R." This all works as intended.
We have maintained Changeability settings for each release indicator in customizing. "R" is set to "4 - Changeable, new release in case of new strat. or val. change," with a percent value change tolerance of 10%.
If we make a change to a manually released PO that exceeds the threshold set in customizing, the release procedure starts over as intended.
If we make a change exceeding the threshold to a PO that was released automatically by BAPI_PO_RELEASE, the release procedure does not start over, and the PO remains unblocked.
What would cause this discrepancy? The two records look virtually identical in EKKO, particularly in respect to the fields relevant to release.
Thank you ahead of time for your help.

Multi-document Application using JTextPane - Issue
Hi.
I'm making a java IDE as a class assignment where the user opens a certain project and all associated files open (i.e. all files in the requested folder). Opening is not an issue but here's the real problem. When a file opens (in the JTextPane), the user should be able to edit it. Although my program enables this, what also happens is that if the user switches onto viewing another file (i.e. clicking a file name from a tree in the file pane) the previously open file obviously closes and nothing is saved. I don't want to save the users edits in the actual file until and unless the user themselves click save, but 'd like the application to store the intermediate state of documents until a save request or until the program is terminated. Is there any easy way of doing this?

How to prevent JTextPane from inserting newline on setText(longLine)
Hi all, I have seen some posts (referenced below) regarding
JTextPane and turning off line wrap. I tried these but still
have some unwanted behavior.
If I insert long html content that has no CRs in it into a JTextPane,
using setText(...)
and then immediatly call getText()
I get back my html content with CRs in it.
how can I prevent this????
In the code below, I insert a long line (html), then call getText()
and JTextPane has inserted a CR after the ffff
visually , in the gui, it did not put a line break there, which is great, but
somewhere in the document model it was inserted
I have code that would break if there are newlines in
strange places like that.
I DO want the html markup from the call to JTextPane.getText()
but not with the additional newlines.

A FocusListener is also added to our editor. The two methods of this listener, focusGained() and
focusLost(), will be invoked when the editor gains and loses the focus respectively. The purpose of
this implementation is to save and restore the starting and end positions of the text selection.
The reason? -> Swing supports only one text selection at any given time. This means
that if the user selects some text in the editor component to modify it's attributes, and then goes
off and makes a text selection in some other component, the original text selection will disappear.
This can potentially be very annoying to the user. To fix this problem I'll save the selection before
the editor component loses the focus. When the focus is gained we restore the previously saved selection.
I'll distinguish between two possible situations: when the caret is located at the beginning of the
selection and when it is located at the end of the selection. In the first case, position the
caret at the end of the stored interval with the setCaretPosition() method, and then move the
caret backward to the beginning of the stored interval with the moveCaretPosition() method.
The second situation is easily handled using the select() method.
FocusListener focusListener = new FocusListener() {
public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
int len = getDocument().getLength();
if (startSelectionPosition>=0 &&
endSelectionPosition>=0 &&
startSelectionPosition<len &&
endSelectionPosition<len)

setCaretPosition(endSelectionPosition);
moveCaretPosition(startSelectionPosition);

select(startSelectionPosition, endSelectionPosition);

Edited by: henryhamster on Sep 13, 2007 8:59 PMok, I found a somewhat work around. calling JTextPane.getText() eventually
invokes HTMLEditorKit.write()
which does code
HTMLWriter w = new HTMLWriter(out, (HTMLDocument)doc, pos, len);
w.write();the HTMLWriter() constructor above makes this call
setLineLength(80);
So If I extend some classes (JEditorKit and HTMLWriter) I can call invoke
htmlWriter.setLineLength(1000); // ridiculous length to prevent insertion of CR/LF
here is the hack, can someone please tell
me there is an easier way. :-)

* selection at any given time. This means that if the user selects some
* text in the editor component to modify it's attributes, and then goes
* off and makes a text selection in some other component, the original
* text selection will disappear. This can potentially be very annoying
* to the user. To fix this problem I'll save the selection before the
* editor component loses the focus. When the focus is gained we restore
* the previously saved selection. I'll distinguish between two possible
* situations: when the caret is located at the beginning of the
* selection and when it is located at the end of the selection. In the
* first case, position the caret at the end of the stored interval with
* the setCaretPosition() method, and then move the caret backward to
* the beginning of the stored interval with the moveCaretPosition()
* method. The second situation is easily handled using the select()
* method.

How to get exact height of HTML line with SUB tag in JTextPane?
Hi, this is my first post. I`ve been searching forum for an answer for a week, but didn`t find one.
I have HTMLDocument inside JTextPane(exacty inside my class that extends it - MyTextPane). I want to do some custom painting in JTextPane so I need to be able to know exact pixel witdh for each line in the document. Easy except one thing, when I use SUB tag the width of the line cannot be simply calculated using FontMetrics, because I don`t know if the text inside SUB tag has lower font size and I don`t know its Y offset to normal line.
I tried get these information from HTMLDocument using attributes from leafElements representing lines, but there seems to be a problem too.
I pass this text:
"(1) Line<SUB>jW</SUB><BR>(2) TextB"
to setText method of MyTextPane, this method is overriden so it changes text Font
public void setText(String s) {
super.setText(s);
setJTextPaneFont(this, new Font("Arial",Font.PLAIN,36), Color.black);
}This is how the Element Structure looks like:
Format is Element +": "+elementText+"|"+fontFamily+" "+fontSize
BranchElement(html) 0,22: \n(1)?LinejW (2)?TextB\n|Monospaced 12
---BranchElement(head) 0,1: \n|Monospaced 12
------BranchElement(p-implied) 0,1: \n|Monospaced 12
---------LeafElement(content) 0,1: \n|Arial 36
---BranchElement(body) 1,22: (1) LinejW (2) TextB\n|Monospaced 12
------BranchElement(p-implied) 1,22: (1) LinejW (2) TextB\n|Monospaced 12
---------LeafElement(content) 1,9: (1) Line|Arial 36
---------LeafElement(content) 9,11: jW|Arial 36 <-----------THIS IS THE LOWER INDEX
---------LeafElement(content) 11,12: |Arial 36 <-----------THIS IS just space character '\u020'
---------LeafElement(content) 12,21: (2) TextB|Arial 36
---------LeafElement(content) 21,22: \n|Arial 36
The height of Arial 36 is according to FontMetrics 43(and it really is), but height of the lowerIndex is just 40 pixels(on the screen), not 43 as I would expect. And I still dont have offset, where does the lower index starts paint itself.
Is there any problem with my setText method, so that it changes font style for LOWER INDEX?
I am using JTextPane as notEditable, with just one font style for entire document.
Any suggestion?Is there any other way to get these information. I just found that I need that information before I put text it in the document.
For example I am would like to generate lines:
paragraph1 - text1
text2
paragraph2 - text1
text2
text3
paragraph3<SUB>some note</SUB> - text1
text2
normal text line
I know what font line will be and I know its AttributeSet. I am trying to get appropriate number of spaces (or left indent) for text2,text3...lines. Then I will pass that string to setText method of JTextPane.
I am unable to get appropriate width for "paragraph3<SUB>some note</SUB> - ", since text in SUB tag uses probably different font size.
I am really sorry to bother again. I will think twice what I need before I posting.
You`ve been very helpful so far Stas.
Thanks. -
Display image in JTextPane (JEditorPane)
I'm writing an application with JTable and a JTextPane. When selecting a column in the JTable, I want to display the image associated with the selected row in the JTextPane.
This wouldn't be a problem if the darn JTextPane would just display JUST AN IMAGE. But a JTextPane only displays an image if its embedded in an HTML file. Ugh. That would mean I'd have to create an html file for each picture. Ugh again.
Is there any way around this?Nevermind, figured it out. Just have to use setText instead of setPage.
htmlPane.setText("<IMG src='"+url+"'>");instead of:
htmlPane.setPage(url); -

Hi,
I am facing huge memory leak problems with JTextArea/JTextPane. After considerable investigation, I found out that the Document associated with the component is not being GC'ed properly. I ran OptimizeIt and found out that the memory is being consumed by the JTextPane.setText() method. I have implmented a HTML viewer to display large amounts of HTML data and it is leaking memory like crazy on each successive execution. Any thoughts ??

How Do I Make Text Colored in a JTextPane
I currently have a program that uses a JTextArea to display text that the user has typed into a Text Field. This is working and i now want to be able to make parts of this text different colors. I was looking in the tutorials and it looks like i need to use a JTextPane but i am not sure how to do this, does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance.

Linux Serial NI-VISA - Can the buffer size be changed from 4096?
I am communicating with a serial device on Linux, using LV 7.0 and NI-VISA. About a year and a half ago I had asked customer support if it was possible to change the buffer size for serial communication. At that time I was using NI-VISA 3.0. In my program the VISA function for setting the buffer size would send back an error of 1073676424, and the buffer would always remain at 4096, no matter what value was input into the buffer size control. The answer to this problem was that the error code was just a warning, letting you know that you could not change the buffer size on a Linux machine, and 4096 bytes was the pre-set buffer size (unchangeable). According to the person who was helping me: "The reason that it doesn't work on those platforms (Linux, Solaris, Mac OSX) is that is it simply unavailable in the POSIX serial API that VISA uses on these operating systems."
Now I have upgraded to NI-VISA 3.4 and I am asking the same question. I notice that an error code is no longer sent when I input different values for the buffer size. However, in my program, the bytes returned from the device max out at 4096, no matter what value I input into the buffer size control. So, has VISA changed, and it is now possible to change the buffer size, but I am setting it up wrong? Or, have the error codes changed, but it is still not possible to change the buffer size on a Linux machine with NI-VISA?
Thanks,
SamThe buffer size still can't be set, but it seems that we are no longer returning the warning. We'll see if we can get the warning back for the next version of VISA.
Thanks,

View the Text in JTextPane when we r inserting another text
Hi,
I have created GUI in swing where i have taken JTextPane.I am seaching some keyword which r given by the client if i found so i am creating the pdf file for that data and in JTextPane i am showing the pdf file name .....if i am getting that keyword in the database then i am showing some different color string that " keyword not found with that keyword" .........while this process takes too much time to create pdf....till that time JTextPane is not showing any text.........in this case i want that the text should show in the JTextPane once the single Pdf file get created and so on to create 100 PDF file...plase sugget me somthing ......thanxHi,
Thanks a lot for ur support..Now i am getting updated JTextPane..
Can u provide me a link with the help of which i can use multiple threads
1.to get information from the database.......to collect data from database.
2.to search the keyword in that database.
3.to print the search condition in the JTextPane
4.Final is to create PDF.
So i have to do above 4 steps out of which last step(4th) that is to create PDF is time consuming...So give me guidence with the help of which i can make maximum use of threads for faster execution.....thanx
