How to have a Scrollable JTextPane?

I would like to have a JTextPane that have scroll bar, how can I do so ? Thanks.

Solution

  • To insert a scroll bar on your new JTextPane, just use a JScrollPane:

    JTextPane txt = new JTextPane();

JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(txt);

    JTextPane API: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/JTextPane.html

    JScrollPane API: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/JScrollPane.html
