Resizing a JTextPane dynamically while typing

Hello,
I'm developing an app that calls for maintaining a list of text "segments" that each have a corresponding button. I've created a class called TextSegment (JPanel subclass) that contains a JButton and a JTextPane, and add these dynamically to another JPanel container at the user's request.
Each TextSegment starts off with a fixed height of one line. As the user types, the contents scroll properly, but I'd like to instead automatically grow it vertically (when the user types a CR or the text wraps) so that all the text is visible.
I'm somewhat new to Java/Swing, and am thinking that I should be able to recognize an event where the JTextPane text area grows, and enlarge its container accordingly.
Is this possible? Thanks in advance for any tips or pointers.

You should be able to add a DocumentListener to the JTextPane. You will get notified whenever text is added or removed from the Document. As text is added or removed, the preferred size of the text pane should change. Then you would need to invoke the LayoutManger so it is aware of the change in preferred size. You would do this by invoking the revalidate() method on the parent Container of the JTextPane.

  • After upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

    after upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

    Go to Settings>General>Keyboards>Predictive Text>ON. If it is on, you can toggle it off and then back on. The other method is to check in the typing area of the Messages app and it could be minimized. You would see a small line in the center just below the typing area. You would just need to put your finger on that small line and swipe upwards. But either should bring it back.

  • I have a problem while typing in my MacBook pro. it is showing different characters when i type. for example: qw`e§r]t[y=   this is how when we type "qwerty|" can anyone help me pls?

    I have a problem while typing in my MacBook pro. it is showing different characters when i type. for example: qw`e§r]t[y=   this is how when we type "qwerty|" can anyone help me pls?

    You could just try changing your Input Sources under System Preferences>Language & Text:
    But I kind of doubt that's going to work. It may be a hardware problem or a system problem. If you take it into Apple they might be able to determine which and might advise a reinstallation of System software. I would take it to an Apple Store or an AASP but, first, make sure that you have a backup just in case they suggest a clean install of the system.
    Good luck,

  • How do I hide the keyboard while typing an email?

    On the iPad you can hide the keyboard anytime while typing.  I cannot see a way to hide the keyboard when typing a mail message. I saw a post saying you close, save, go to your saved messaes and open the message again - too time consuming.  There is a fix on the jailbroken site, but I dont want to jailbreak the phone.  There must be a way to hide the keyboard in a mail messge.  In a text message you can.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Edit
    I CAN, but not fully for a preview, as the text box goes up completely after 80 odd characters on the iPhone.
    So, now i cannot see a previous message for reference.

  • Apple Mail syncing while typing, multiple updates on BB for same message.

    First of all, thanks for looking and helping. Second, it's probably my fault as I am a tweaker often to my detriment. So, with disclaimers out of the way, here's what is happening:
    I have a MacBook Pro and my mail is IMAP from my GMail account. When I respond to an email on the Apple, using Apple Mail, WHILE I AM TYPING, the BB retrieves a NEW email with the latest installment of the email!!! Here's an example that just happened:
    Open email, start replying... "Paul, I wanted to explain"
    BB announces new mail with that sentence
    I continue typing... "why I like pasta"
    BB announces new email with "Paul, I wanted to explain why I like pasta"
    Etc., etc., etc.
    So, my work around it to go to gmail.com and write the email within that program as opposed to using Apple Mail on laptop.
    My BB is Tour 9630 with 4.7.1   and the Gmail app is 2.0.7, if it matters.
    The Apple is running OS X 10.6.2 and Apple Mail is 4.2
    Oh, Bluetooth is not turned on on either device.
    Let me know if you need any further info. Thanks again for looking!
    Peace.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have the same problem.
     Just bought the MAC book Pro and while typing on Apple mail everything is syncing on my Blackberry,...This will go on until I finish the mail..Depending on the length of the mail, I can heave more than 15 copies of the same mail that is redundant and constantly updating. Frustrating. I did unchecked the box under preferences, mail box behavior but nothing happened. Has anyone figured out what is the solution?
    Thanks

  • Keyboard lag while typing

    I was wondering if anyone else experienced a lag in the on screen keyboard while typing in certain apps? I have an app that lets me text my friends but as I try to type I can type out a whole sentence or two before the words on appear on screen. Does anyone know why this happens or how I might fix it? In advance thank you for any and all help

    I've had this happen a time or two on my iPad. Usually quitting the app and restarting it solves the problem.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

  • How Do I Hide Mouse Pointer While Typing In Firefox

    Only in firefox, and only recently am I having problems typing anything through firefox, as the slightest touch of my laptops touch pad causes the mouse pointer to jump along with my typing cursor. This is causing major issues as I conduct all y business emails through firefox. If this cant be helped I will have to start using Internet Explorer Again. EVERY other program I use auto hides the mouse while typing, Except FF....
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Not sure, but I believe a week or so ago

    I have had the same problem despite having Hide Pointer When Typing checked in Mouse Properties. Damn annoying. I thought I finally found a solution with a free utility called "Park Cursor Aside" at http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/parkcursoraside-hide-mouse-cursor-when-typing/.
    Works great in Chrome and everywhere else EXCEPT Firefox. How about it Mozilla, are you are giving me another reason to switch over to Chrome? Please fix this. Thank you.

  • Satellite P300: cursor jumps to different positions while typing

    Hi All,
    i have a Satellite P300,
    I am having trouble when i type.
    When i am typing using the keyboard, the first couple of words are ok, but then the words start typing in the wrong place, eg back further into the middle of the sentence i am typing.
    Anybody please help? thanks

    Hi dude
    I had a similar issue.
    While typing the cursor jumped to different positions and I was not able to finish one sentence.
    I though there could be something wrong with the keyboard but finally I have notices that I have touched the touchpad surface accidentally while typing ?.
    I have disabled the touchpad using the Fn+F9 and the issues has gone
    So maybe its the same reason for you

  • Quirk while typing in iMail

    Hi,
    So I just got the iPad Air and am running into this really annoying quirk.
    While typing in portrait mode in iMail, the cursor has a tendency to skip to the bottom of the page, right to the end of the "Sent using my iPad" tag. This will happen three or four times in one email. Really frustrating.
    Anyone know how to fix?

  • While typing in Contribute, Page disappeared. How do I recover?

    While typing away on a major Page revision...the draft disappeared. There was no warning message...no back button. How do I recover that draft?

    Hi Graffiti;
    Thank you for your input.
    Checked. I did not have Rollbacks (Tim Horton’s???) enabled...so assume I have lost an hours work. I’m obviously not impressed with the Contribute programmer’s that would allow this to happen...why not just a simple BACK button? I’ll talk to Adobe.
    Thanks again...have a great day!

  • TB freezes while typing in email address

    While typing the address in the to: box, thunderbird freezes.
    I am on Ubuntu 14-04, thunderbird 31.5.0. The behavior happens periodically and also in safemode. It seems to be when i pause typing and it tries to look up the address in my address book.
    It looks like the same issue as https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1013192, but that question is closed.

    I looked at the question you referenced. Do you have a large address book as 'tektite' did (over 5000)? I can give you a link to the daily version for Ubuntu if you would like to try it. (I run on Ubuntu 14.04 also).

  • My iPhone freezes while typing

    Hello
    My iphone 6 plus freezes while typing. doesn't matter if I'm typing a text message or a URL the problem is everywhere. My collegue at my work has the same problem. I can still continue to type when it freezes, and when it unfreeze the letters are filled in like there's no tomorrow. It all started with iOS 8
    It doesn't matter if it is Swedish layout or English layout on the keyboard.
    best regards Jonas

    Hello Lim,
    To get in the horizontal and enlarged keyboard of the iPhone, simply hold the iPhone or iDevice in a horizontal manner. The gyroscope in the device will automatically sense this and will make the keyboard horizontal.
    P.S You could tell us the app you are using unless you are using the the default SMS/ Mail app, because some apps do not support the horizontal keyboard.

  • Update while typing in numeric control?

    So...
    When I type a number into a numeric control, it doesn't update until I hit enter or click somewhere outside the control.
    Problem is, after entering the number, I want to click on a "go" button
    to do something with the new value in numeric control, but unless I
    remember to click somewhere else or hit enter first, I'm doing
    something with the old value, not the new value.
    This gets aggravating.
    How to make sure the value of the numeric control gets updated before doing something with it?
    "update while typing" exists for string controls, but seems conspicuously lacking for other types of controls...

    I cannot reproduce your described behavior: With either a local variable or the numeric control inside the event case, I never see a stale value. Please attach your VI so we can troubleshoot.
    Adding a delay to fix something like this is incorrect and dangerous. If a delay solves the problem, it points to a flaw in the code.  What if somebody will run your program on a slower computer where it would suddenly need a 12ms delay. You'd be back to sqaure one, dealing with race conditions.
    (And why are you using "mouse down" instead of "value changed"?)

  • Keynote crashing every 2-3 minutes while typing

    Hello All,
    I'm going slighty nuts, because keynote (latest version and revisions) are crashing every 2-3 minutes while typing.
    I make presentations for a living and the situation is getting a litte precarious.
    So... I did the full monthy: uninstallation, disk permission repair, reinstallation... permission repair...
    The weird thing is, my business partner has an identical machine and has no problems...
    Any clue? Buggy memory? buggy gpu memory?
    Thanks
    Michel

    There are two options, try option 1 first, if that does not work use option 2:
    1 -  a custom repair for Keynote 6.1
    Try this repair for iWork applications, its sorted out many similar problems in the past
    ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote by usingAppcleaner from Mac Update to      do this, its freeware
    2  restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
    3  immediately after the start chime,  press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
             let it fully boot up,  it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive  then First Aid tab and      click  repair disc permissions
    5  when complete, restart the Mac normally
    6  install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    Please report back to let us know if this helped.
    2  - Clean install Mavericks by      back up all your work and user files, repartition the hard drive,
    then re-install Mavericks
    To reinstall OS X, you must be connected to the Internet
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
    If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
    Select Disk Utility, then click Continue.
    Select your startup disk on the left, then click the Erase tab.
    Choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) from the Format menu, enter a name, then click Erase.
    After the disk is erased, choose Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility.
    Select Reinstall OS X, click Continue, then follow the onscreen instructions.

    Hello,
    According to your user agent, you are on Firefox 32. If you planned to use Firefox 31 ESR, you can grab a copy here:
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
    Out of curiosity, when it turns transparent, is there a "(Not Responding)" appended to the end of the window title? If you don't have the Window title being shown, it might show up if you have window titles shown on your taskbar, or in the task manager (right click on your taskbar and select "Start Task Manager"). If you do see a Not Responding, it could be a slow script on one of the pages you are viewing.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
