Hello,
I have a JTable instance, containing a number of rows. The columns in this table are JLabel instances containing an HTML-formatted string.
One of my requirements is that all the data in these columns should be displayed. If the column width (for whatever reason) is not wide enough to display all the data, the text should wrap onto the next line. Currently the text is just cut off.
This piece of code illustrates the problem:
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class TableTest {
public static void main(final String[] args) {
final JTable jTable = new JTable();
jTable.setModel(new DefaultTableModel() {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Override
public Object getValueAt(final int row, final int column) {
final StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append("<html>");
sb.append("<font color=\"red\">this text is red</font> ");
sb.append("<font color=\"green\">this text is green!</font>");
sb.append("</html>");
return sb.toString();
}
@Override
public int getColumnCount() {
return 2;
}
@Override
public int getRowCount() {
return 2;
}
});
final JFrame jFrame = new JFrame();
jFrame.getContentPane().add(jTable);
jFrame.setSize(120, 80);
jFrame.pack();
jFrame.setTitle("Table test");
jFrame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
jFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jFrame.setVisible(true);
}
}
My problem might become more clear when running the SSCCE above. If the JFrame is resized, I want the row height to automatically be modified to allow the entire contents of the JPanel to be displayed.
Due to the requirement of HTML, I am not able to use a JTextArea.
Thanks,
Ben
