Multiple Fonts in a javax.swing.JTextPane

I am trying to use multiple fonts in a JTextPane, but can only find ways of changing the font family used. Can anyone give me any pointers on how to do this, or a document somewhere that explains, either way with out going into the javax.swing.text.html, javax.swing.text.html.parser or java.awt.font packages.
Any information that can be provided would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nathan

Just use SimpleAttributeSet like :
SimpleAttributeSet defaultSet = new SimpleAttributeSet();
        StyleConstants.setForeground( defaultSet, Color.BLACK );
        StyleConstants.setFontFamily( defaultSet, "Verdana" );
        StyleConstants.setFontSize( defaultSet, 14 );
        SimpleAttributeSet navigationSet = new SimpleAttributeSet();
        StyleConstants.setForeground( navigationSet, new Color(00, 99, 00) );
        StyleConstants.setBold( navigationSet, true );
        StyleConstants.setFontFamily( navigationSet, "Verdana" );
        StyleConstants.setFontSize( navigationSet, 11 );
// just defiine endPoints what ever you want
((DefaultStyledDocument)textPane.getDocument()).setCharacterAttributes(0, endPoint1, defaultSet , true)
((DefaultStyledDocument)textPane.getDocument()).setCharacterAttributes(0, endPoint2, navigation , true)

Javax.swing.JTextPane - COLOR Problem

Hi
I am using javax.swing.JTextPane object to display text recieved from two servers.
How can I make messages recieved from Server 1 to be in RED and while from Server 2
to be in Green? i.e. the window should look...
(red) Server 1 says ta ta
(green) Server 2 says Hello
My code looks....
javax.swing.JTextPane WINDOW;
String message1 = connection1.getMessage();
..........// What code should I put here??? to make this message look RED??
..........// Color of previous text should remain as it is...
WINDOW.setText(WINDOW.getText() + message1);An Example would be highly appreciated.
Regards
Fahad

Hi,
that is the wrong way - try this method in your JTextPane subclass
public void appendText(String s,Color col) {
StyledDocument sd = getStyledDocument();
SimpleAttributeSet attr = new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setForground(attr,col);
try { sd.insertString(sd.getLength(),s,attr); }
catch (BadLocationException e) {}
} // end of methodand use it in your code like that
WINDOW.appendText(message1,Color.red);
hope that helps
greetings Marsian

Working with objects \ beans inside a Swing.JTextPane

javax.swing.text.html
specifically
javax.swing.text.html.ObjectVeiw Class
Is it possible to set the size of on object, which is an instance of type Component
Example
Although these beans work fine, I can not set the width and height properties while they are embedded in the JTextPane. Attempts to give initial values of height & width within the object tag also fail.
<HTML><BODY bgcolor="#00A0A0">
Test This page
This next object is a Simple Bean that extends Canvas
<object classid="SimpleBean" width="150" height="150">
<param name="width" value="10"> <! Does not work in JTextPane>
<param name="height" value="200">
<param name="underText" value="Text for the Canvas">
</object>
This next object is a JTextPane
<object classid="javax.swing.JTextPane">
<param name="text" value="Embeded JTextPane">
<param name="size" value"150,150">
</object>
</BODY></HTML>
Also could you show me more HTML examples of use

if there is
a LayoutManager in use, it will overwrite the size you
attempt to set. Only if the layout manager is null
will doing a setSize() work properly.true

Variable textArea not found in class javax.swing.JFrame...

Yeah!!! It works. Turned out to be a combination of DrKlap's and Martisan's suggestions -- had to change var frame's declaration from JFrame to MyFrame:
    MyFrame frame;Next, created the external class -- but again changed JFrame references to MyFrame:
public class ShowOnExit extends WindowAdapter {
//   JFrame aFrame;
   MyFrame aFrame;
   public ShowOnExit(MyFrame f) {
      aFrame = f;
   public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
      System.out.println("Why me???" + aFrame.textArea.getText()); // aFrame here not frame !!!
}This worked. So looks like even though the original code added a WindowListener to 'frame', the listener didn't couldn't access frame's methods unless it was explicitly passed in as a parameter. Let me know if that's wrong.
Thanks again, all.

Urgent :Using a font face name in a JtextPane

1)How can I use a font face name for setting the font of the text I display in a JTextPane.A call to textPane.setFont() does not work I could find a method StyleConstants.setFontFamily() , but , if I'm not wrong, that would set the font family only and hence the valid arguments to the method would be family names like "Serif", "SansSerif", "Monospaced", "Dialog", and "DialogInput", and not a facename like "Courier".
2) Also because I cannot use a java.awt.Font object for JTextPane, I cannot use a cache for fonts so that I can share a Font object across multiple JTextPanes. Any ideas?
Regards
Nikhil.

I am not sure how to answer this because you do not
make it clear why you cannot use a
java.awt.Font.The reason for this is that if I invoke method setFont (java.awt.Font) on a JTextPane , it has no effect.
The only way I could find for setting a font in JTextPane is to use StyleConstants.setFontFamily() which
takes a font family name as a string. As a result , if I have multiple JTextPanes with the same font,
I'm not sure if internally some sort of caching would be used by the java runtime.
If only I could use setFont(java.awt.Font) ona JTextPane, I could have cached java.awt.Font objects
and supplied the same Font object in setFont(java.awt.Font) method of all the JTextPanes that have
text with identical fonts.
If you define a
java.awt.Font in a high-level class, and pass
it to many JTextPanes it will only be cached once,
because of oblique passing-by-reference used by the
JVM.

Question to understand javax.swing.plaf.FontUIResource("Arial Unicode MS"..

Hi Commuity!
I have an Question about this function!
javax.swing.plaf.FontUIResource("Arial Unicode MS", Font.PLAIN, 12);
I have read the Java doc but this didn�t help!
I wanted to know, what happend, if this Font is not an the Client.
So i deleted the Font "Arial Unicode MS".
But the applikation still use this Font. But it is not on my local PC?
Were do Swing load the Font�s from?
Are the Fonts included in Java?
thx a lot
Florian

Has got nobody an idea, where swing load the fonts from?

Swing---JTextPane(a boring trouble---looking forward to answer)

In the following program the JLabel inherited can'nt be seen when it inserted into the JTextPane, I wander why?
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class AdvancedJTextPane extends JFrame
JTextPane jtp;
public AdvancedJTextPane(){
     jtp=new JTextPane();
     this.getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     JScrollPane js = new JScrollPane();
     js.getViewport().add(jtp);
     this.getContentPane().add(js);
     this.pack();
     this.setSize(350, 250);
     this.setVisible(true);
     jtp.insertComponent(new DrawLabel(""));
     this.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
System.exit(0);
public static void main(String[] args) {
new AdvancedJTextPane();
class DrawLabel extends JLabel {
public DrawLabel(String label) {
super(label);
Dimension size = getPreferredSize();
size.width = size.height = Math.max(size.width,
size.height);
setPreferredSize(size);
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
g.setColor(Color.lightGray);
g.drawOval(0, 0, getSize().width-3, getSize().height-3);
super.paintComponent(g);
protected void paintBorder(Graphics g) {
g.setColor(getForeground());
g.drawOval(0, 0, getSize().width-1, getSize().height-1);
}

Here's your culprit:
jtp.insertComponent(new DrawLabel(""));You need to use something other than an empty string (spaces will work):
jtp.insertComponent(new DrawLabel("     "));

why? what's wrong? thanks

The DocumentParser seems to throw a ChangedCharSetException if it finds a "http-equiv" meta tag for "content-type" or "charset" and if the parser's "ignoreCharSet" property is set to false on creation.

Having multiple font styles in a menuitem

I am just trying to apply different "font styles" to a menu item available in a menubar.Font style include the three parameters which is passed to a font constructor.
Font(java.lang.String name, int style, int size).
say i want to have a Font("Script",Font.BOLD,20) to a particular menu item which i have created using JMenuBar.
this is the prob. exactly.
needed valuable suggestions.(if possible the code)
regards,
Ranjit Singh

Here's a possible Swing solution, if I understand you correctly:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test
     public static void main(String args[])
          new Test();
     public Test()
          JFrame f = new JFrame("Menu Item Test");
          JMenuBar menu = new JMenuBar();
          JMenu menuFile = new JMenu("File");
          menu.add(menuFile);
          JMenuItem menuItemOpen = new JMenuItem("Open");
          menuItemOpen.setFont(new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 16));
          JMenuItem menuItemClose = new JMenuItem("Close");
          menuItemClose.setFont(new Font("Monospaced", Font.ITALIC, 14));
          JMenuItem menuItemExit = new JMenuItem("Exit");
          menuItemExit.setFont(new Font("Dialog", Font.ITALIC, 12));
          menuFile.add(menuItemOpen);
          menuFile.add(menuItemClose);
          menuFile.add(menuItemExit);
          f.setJMenuBar(menu);
          f.pack();
          f.show();
}

Where did javax.swing.plaf.metal go after 1.4?

Dear Users of the java.swing libraries,
I've made a schoolproject in javax.swing and i am using the javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel as LookAndFeel.
The Problem is: it seems sun has removed the Metal LookAndFeel in versions past 1.4 or something like that. I read this in the source DefaultmetalTheme.java file:
* This class describes the default Metal Theme.
* 
* Warning:
* Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
* future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
* appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
* the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage
* of all JavaBeansTM
* has been added to the <code>java.beans</code> package.
* Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.
* @version 1.25 01/23/03
* @author Steve Wilson
*/Now i wonder, can i find this cool Metal style anywhere else? In like the java.beans that was mentioned in the code of DefaultmetalTheme.java.
In my current situation my project is ruined and i would relly appriciate some feedback on this!
Yours Truthfully,
Alexander Thore

They would only be where you put them.
You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update.
If you failed to do this, then they are likely gone.
You can try a restore from backup.

Help ! inaccurate time recorded using javax.swing.timer

Hi All,
I am currently trying to write a stopwatch for timing application events such as loggon, save, exit ... for this I have created a simple Swing GUI and I am using the javax.swing.timer and updating a the time on a Jlabel. The trouble that I am having is that the time is out by up to 20 seconds over a 10 mins. Is there any way to get a more accruate time ?? The code that I am using is attached below.
private Timer run = new Timer(1000, new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
timeTaken.setText("<html>" + (df.format(timeHours)) + ":" + (df.format(timeMins)) + ":"
+ (df.format(timeSeconds++)) + "<html>");
receordedTimeValue = ((df.format(timeHours)) + ":" + (df.format(timeMins)) + ":"
+ (df.format(timeSeconds)));
if (timeSeconds == 60) {
timeMins++;
timeSeconds = 0;
if (timeMins == 60) {
timeHours++;
timeMins = 0;

To get more accurate time you should use the System.currentTimeMillis() method.
Try this code :
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class CountUpLabel extends JLabel{
 javax.swing.Timer timer;
 long startTime, count;
 public CountUpLabel() {
 super(" ", SwingConstants.CENTER);
 timer = new javax.swing.Timer(500, new ActionListener() { // less than or equal to 1000 (1000, 500, 250,200,100)
 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
 if (startTime == -1) {
 count = 0;
 startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
 else {
 count = System.currentTimeMillis()-startTime;
 setText(getStringTime(count));
 private static final String getStringTime(long millis) {
 int seconds = (int)(millis/1000);
 int minutes = (int)(seconds/60);
 int hours = (int)(minutes/60);
 minutes -= hours*60;
 seconds -= (hours*3600)+(minutes*60);
 return(((hours<10)?"0"+hours:""+hours)+":"+((minutes<10)?"0"+minutes:""+minutes)+":"+((seconds<10)?"0"+seconds:""+seconds));
 public void start() {
 startTime = -1;
 timer.setInitialDelay(0);
 timer.start();
 public long stop() {
 timer.stop();
 return(count);
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 JFrame frame = new JFrame("Countdown");
 CountUpLabel countUp = new CountUpLabel();
 frame.getContentPane().add(countUp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
 frame.setBounds(200,200,200,100);
 frame.setVisible(true);
 countUp.start();

Any suggestion?
Grazie

So I can only assume that I have the the necessary resources installed correctly. Any thoughts on what might be causing my problem?
com.sun.java.plat.windows.WindowsClassicLookAndFeel // the class you're trying to set
com.sun.java.plaf.windows.WindowsClassicLookAndFeel // the class that is actually availableSee the difference?

How can I deploy multiple fonts with the ProfileManager

I tried to add more than just one Font using the ProfileManager on Mac OS X Server 3.1.1
There appears just one line to add one Font file. Do I need to combine all my fonts into one file to deploy it?
Don't see a way to add more Font Payloads.

I spoke to Apple's Enterprise support today about this problem, and the representative said that he is going to report this "issue" to Engineering. Not sure what this means, but I thought I would let you know.
If you are trying to deploy multiple fonts to iOS devices, they suggested that I use Apple Configurator, which is available for free in the Mac App Store...
