Class JTextPane

Constructor Detail

• JTextPane

  public JTextPane()

  Creates a new JTextPane. A new instance of StyledEditorKit is created and set, and the document model set to null.

• JTextPane

  public JTextPane(StyledDocument doc)

  Creates a new JTextPane, with a specified document model. A new instance of javax.swing.text.StyledEditorKit is created and set.

  Parameters:

  doc - the document model

Method Detail

• getUIClassID

  public String getUIClassID()

  Returns the class ID for the UI.

  Overrides:

  getUIClassID in class JEditorPane

  Returns:

  the string "TextPaneUI"

  See Also:

  JComponent.getUIClassID(), UIDefaults.getUI(javax.swing.JComponent)

• setDocument

  public void setDocument(Document doc)

  Associates the editor with a text document. This must be a StyledDocument.

  Overrides:

  setDocument in class JTextComponent

  Parameters:

  doc - the document to display/edit

  Throws:

  IllegalArgumentException - if doc can't be narrowed to a StyledDocument which is the required type of model for this text component

  See Also:

  JTextComponent.getDocument()

• setStyledDocument

  public void setStyledDocument(StyledDocument doc)

  Associates the editor with a text document. The currently registered factory is used to build a view for the document, which gets displayed by the editor.

  Parameters:

  doc - the document to display/edit

• getStyledDocument

  public StyledDocument getStyledDocument()

  Fetches the model associated with the editor.

  Returns:

  the model

• replaceSelection

  public void replaceSelection(String content)

  Replaces the currently selected content with new content represented by the given string. If there is no selection this amounts to an insert of the given text. If there is no replacement text this amounts to a removal of the current selection. The replacement text will have the attributes currently defined for input at the point of insertion. If the document is not editable, beep and return.

  Overrides:

  replaceSelection in class JEditorPane

  Parameters:

  content - the content to replace the selection with

• insertComponent

  public void insertComponent(Component c)

  Inserts a component into the document as a replacement for the currently selected content. If there is no selection the component is effectively inserted at the current position of the caret. This is represented in the associated document as an attribute of one character of content.

  The component given is the actual component used by the JTextPane. Since components cannot be a child of more than one container, this method should not be used in situations where the model is shared by text components.

  The component is placed relative to the text baseline according to the value returned by Component.getAlignmentY. For Swing components this value can be conveniently set using the method JComponent.setAlignmentY. For example, setting a value of 0.75 will cause 75 percent of the component to be above the baseline, and 25 percent of the component to be below the baseline.

  Parameters:

  c - the component to insert

• insertIcon

  public void insertIcon(Icon g)

  Inserts an icon into the document as a replacement for the currently selected content. If there is no selection the icon is effectively inserted at the current position of the caret. This is represented in the associated document as an attribute of one character of content.

  Parameters:

  g - the icon to insert

  See Also:

  Icon

• addStyle

  public Style addStyle(String nm,
               Style parent)

  Adds a new style into the logical style hierarchy. Style attributes resolve from bottom up so an attribute specified in a child will override an attribute specified in the parent.

  Parameters:

  nm - the name of the style (must be unique within the collection of named styles). The name may be null if the style is unnamed, but the caller is responsible for managing the reference returned as an unnamed style can't be fetched by name. An unnamed style may be useful for things like character attribute overrides such as found in a style run.

  parent - the parent style. This may be null if unspecified attributes need not be resolved in some other style.

  Returns:

  the new Style

• removeStyle

  public void removeStyle(String nm)

  Removes a named non-null style previously added to the document.

  Parameters:

  nm - the name of the style to remove

• getStyle

  public Style getStyle(String nm)

  Fetches a named non-null style previously added.

  Parameters:

  nm - the name of the style

  Returns:

  the Style

• setLogicalStyle

  public void setLogicalStyle(Style s)

  Sets the logical style to use for the paragraph at the current caret position. If attributes aren't explicitly set for character and paragraph attributes they will resolve through the logical style assigned to the paragraph, which in term may resolve through some hierarchy completely independent of the element hierarchy in the document.

  Parameters:

  s - the logical style to assign to the paragraph, or null for no style

• getLogicalStyle

  public Style getLogicalStyle()

  Fetches the logical style assigned to the paragraph represented by the current position of the caret, or null.

  Returns:

  the Style

• getCharacterAttributes

  public AttributeSet getCharacterAttributes()

  Fetches the character attributes in effect at the current location of the caret, or null.

  Returns:

  the attributes, or null

• setCharacterAttributes

  public void setCharacterAttributes(AttributeSet attr,
                            boolean replace)

  Applies the given attributes to character content. If there is a selection, the attributes are applied to the selection range. If there is no selection, the attributes are applied to the input attribute set which defines the attributes for any new text that gets inserted.

  Parameters:

  attr - the attributes

  replace - if true, then replace the existing attributes first

• getParagraphAttributes

  public AttributeSet getParagraphAttributes()

  Fetches the current paragraph attributes in effect at the location of the caret, or null if none.

  Returns:

  the attributes

• setParagraphAttributes

  public void setParagraphAttributes(AttributeSet attr,
                            boolean replace)

  Applies the given attributes to paragraphs. If there is a selection, the attributes are applied to the paragraphs that intersect the selection. If there is no selection, the attributes are applied to the paragraph at the current caret position.

  Parameters:

  attr - the non-null attributes

  replace - if true, replace the existing attributes first

• getInputAttributes

  public MutableAttributeSet getInputAttributes()

  Gets the input attributes for the pane.

  Returns:

  the attributes

• getStyledEditorKit

  protected final StyledEditorKit getStyledEditorKit()

  Gets the editor kit.

  Returns:

  the editor kit

• createDefaultEditorKit

  protected EditorKit createDefaultEditorKit()

  Creates the EditorKit to use by default. This is implemented to return javax.swing.text.StyledEditorKit.

  Overrides:

  createDefaultEditorKit in class JEditorPane

  Returns:

  the editor kit

• setEditorKit

  public final void setEditorKit(EditorKit kit)

  Sets the currently installed kit for handling content. This is the bound property that establishes the content type of the editor.

  Overrides:

  setEditorKit in class JEditorPane

  Parameters:

  kit - the desired editor behavior

  Throws:

  IllegalArgumentException - if kit is not a StyledEditorKit

  See Also:

  JEditorPane.getEditorKit()

• paramString

  protected String paramString()

  Returns a string representation of this JTextPane. This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes, and the content and format of the returned string may vary between implementations. The returned string may be empty but may not be null.

  Overrides:

  paramString in class JEditorPane

  Returns:

  a string representation of this JTextPane
