Uppercase text in textfield

I have an issue with textfield. when i type the text in to it , it should display in uppercase , but when i load data from search button , the data should be whatever the case the data is coming from there. Is it possible by adding any keylistener?

See top part of this page for an example how to make the field accept only uppercase letters.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/swing/JTextField.html
As for the requirement that it should maintain the case of copied data, dont really know.

Predictive Text in textfield

Hi,
I'm developing a Java Aplication Desktop, and I need have a predictive text on TextField of Jswing.
How do this??
Thanks... and excuse me , i talk less English

Your requirement is generally known as "Auto-Completion". Google should turn up several excellent examples.
1 ) Create a dictionary. A String[] will do
2) Create an auto-completion document model that takes the dictionary.
3) Use the JTextField.setDocument(myAutoCompleteDoc);

Text in Textfield to Uppercase and Send Value to Another Textfield

Hi Everyone,
I have used the Denes Kubicek example http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:113:425753199246065::NO. I have managed to replicate this in my application but i have a small problem.
i want the value of the text area to be sent to another textarea, like the example shows, but i also need the textarea where the end user inputs the value to be changed to uppercase aswell.
There is an example of the exact thing i want on this example page (third text field down) but i can not combine the two into just ont text area.
Does anyone know how i could do this?
Regards,

final DefaultListModel listModel = new DefaultListModel();

Space around text in textField.

Hi,
See attatched code.
I made a simpel textFiled with some text and a border.
Does anyone knows how to get rid of the extra space between
the text and the border of the textField? I'm goning crazy with
this.
I made the width of the textFiled the width of the text and
the height of the textField the height of the text. But because of
the extra space the text will not show as I wanted to be.
Is there a solution for this? To remove the extra space
surrounding the text?
Thanks.

unfortunately no :(
I tried that already. There is also no top margin and bottom
margin property that I could use :(
I have a text line, and I must position this line to the x/y
coordinates of the righttop of the textField. But with this space
it will not exactly position on the given x/y.
There must be a solution to get rid of this space? Or maybe I
use the wrong object to do this?
Anyone?

Center Text in TextField Dynamically

How on earth do you center text within a text field
dynamically....e.g. textField.align = "center" or
textField.autoSize = "center" ....nothing works?
BTW...is it just me or is the adobe site just plain slow and
almost unusable to everyone else too. It has to be one of the
slowest loading sites I visit and the menu at top takes forever to
load completely also, Has there been discussion on that?

You are using the align property incorrectly. You do not
apply it directly to the textfield but to the textformat property.
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.align = "center";
textField.setTextFormat(format);

How do you justify text in Textfield?

I have a PDF I created from a scan with textfield boxes on it. I've tried selecting the textfield and clicking the layout tab, but it won't let me change the justification of the text in the textfields from middle left to top left. How do I do this?
Thanks

On the right side of the LiveCycle Desinger window, there are three bars labeled "How To", "Paragraph & Text", and "Ojects". Try the "Paragraph & Text".

Highlight text in TextField

I am creating an autocomplete feature for a school project using JAVA. I have created a TextField with a keyListener to lister for keypresses. After the keypress, I search a list for possible matches; stopping on the first match which is then st to the TextField. I have one problem I am trying to fix. I would like to highlight all the text after the caret position. However, when you highlight the text it moves the caret position to the end of the selection. If I set it back to the position th user is typing it deselects my selected text.
How can I highlight text after teh caret position in a TextField?

hi,
try to search the forum and web by the words autocompleting JComboBox, a lot of hints will appear. As you probably know, the JComboBox consists of the JTextField, JButton and JPopupMenu, so autocompletition will be nearly the same.
This site si very good, I think:

Good luck, hope I help you

Change displayed text in textfield an space between elements

Hey people,
a have a Form based on a View. i want to change the spaces between some rows or elements (to group some elements) and don't know how.
For example:
Name Surname
Birthday
Phone Mobil
City
Between Birthday and Phone, and Phone and City now should be more space.
I made it now like that:
Birthday: Display --> rowspan --> 2
and put an Element just shown as Text empty without label below "Birthday". But i don't like that because i need so much empty elements. Is there another possibility to change the style?
I want to change the size from the displayed text in the textfields too, or make it bold maybe.
I hope, i could make it comprehensible to you, if not ... just ask
Greetings, Jana

hey ageller,
thank you very very much. that is exactly what i'm searched for ;-)
can you tell me, if this doesn't work in firefox or mayby why? in IE 7 all works fine, but Firefox 2.0.0.6 doesn't show any changes.
I cleared the cache but still no changes.
Got the same problem with the width of my columns. In IE, Content is shown in one row and Firefox there is linebreak.
Do you (or anybody else) know, how i can fix this??
Thank you so far ....
Jana

Alignment of text in textField

how to change the alignment of text when typing in textField ?

I don't think JavaFX support right to left oriented languages like Arabic (I think support is scheduled for JavaFX 3.0).

Changing Some Text in TextField

Hi everyone,
Hope everyone is doing good..
Curious if you can change only some text in a TextField rather than all of it...
Like simple example:
The Ocean has alot of water...
And make Ocean blue?
Thanks for any help -- Stan

Do you mean the text is there in one way and then changes via some actionscript, or you edit the text in a static textfield to have that one word a different color? For the latter, just do it.
To do it via actionscript you would need to use htmlText property of of a dynamic textfield to make the ocean a different color. If you wanted it to change via some actionscript from one color to another (just that word), you would have to rewrite the sentence, just add the html tags needed to color the text as desired.

Right aligned text in textfield

Hi,
I'm trying to set the text in a textfield to be right-aligned, as it is a number textfield. I'm trying to do this with awt only (as opposed to Swing).
As our number system is Arabic, I figured on doing the following:
<code>
txtfld.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
</code>
However, that didn't do the trick, though I'm deuced if I know why!
Any other suggestions?
Cheers

...Arabic numerals are the ones like 0, 1, 2, and so that are used all over the Western world...Actually, no. I always thought that, too, but I just learned that most Arabic nations use "Arabic-Indic" digits to represent numbers, not the so-called Arabic digits we use in the West (I think I'll just call those "ASCII digits" from now on). However, they are written left-to-right, not right-to-left like the rest of Arabic script. @OP, if this textfield is to contain only digits, you may want to change its internal alignment instead of its orientation. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that with an AWT TextField.
