JEditorPane cursor position and an outer scrollbar position
843807Jun 5 2010 — edited Jun 8 2010hi all ,
Sorry if the title confused you and sorry again if i am reposting something which was already present in the forum.
I have an application , the main component being an awt Frame. I have added a jscrollpane with both horizontal and
vertical scroll bars . To this scroll pane i added a jpanel which consists of several components including an JEditorPane
Everything works fine.
But when i type in the editor pane , if its size is too large (height) and the cursor keeps on coming down , but the scrollpane's
vertical scroll bar doesnt move, making the cursor hidden from view.
What i want to do is : based on the caret position in the JEditorPane i want to update( move ) the horizontal scroll bar of the
scroll pane up or down.
Is it possible ? I think and hope it is . How do i do it ? Any Hints , Ideas to get me started ?
I am using jdk 1.6 , windows Xp with sp 2.
Thanks,
martin
