Using StyledLabel as a renderer for a JTextField

Postby rogergl » Mon Oct 26, 2009 4:53 am

I would like to use the styles from a StyledLabel for the text in a JTextField. What would be the best solution to do this ? Write my own highlighter and draw the content of the StyledLabel inside the paint method of the highlighter ?

Regards
Roger

There are two separate components. It is not possible to use StyledLabel inside a JTextField, just like there is no way to use JLabel inside a JTextField. You may give JTextPane a try which supports styling.

Thanks,
