JList or JTable with multiline / autowrap text

806212Oct 19 2010 — edited Oct 20 2010

Hello Guys,

Hope some of You can help me. I try to find a good solution for my following issue:
I would like to implement a fixed width chat panel (1 JTextField for chat input + 1 button + 1 JTable or JList for messages with scrollpane).
This is not a hard task but 2 issues I have:
* How can I change the rows color background?
* How can I auto wrap the text if the column width limit reached?

check this sample image (i would like to implement the "same" for the messages): [http://www.festekoutlet.hu/jlist_autowraptext.jpg]

in fact the 2nd issue or question is the most important not the alter bg..

looking fw your replies
thanks
