JTextPane inside JScrollPane

[Alexander D�ubler]

Hi everyone,

I try to use a JTextPane within a JScrollPane - if I use the followinh code snippet, everything works fine:

JPanel scrollPanel = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout(), true);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(scrollPanel);
add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);

However, the width of the JTextPane must be alterable (if I use the code snippet from above the JTextPane takes the full width of the application window).

I tried to add the JTextPane to a JPanel instance and assign this JPanel to the JScrollBar - however, in this case the JPanel is much too wide as its bounds are out of the JScrollBar's bounds on the right side.

Does anyone have a solution for my problem??

I'm lost. You are asking about putting a JTextPane in a JScrollPane, and you reference code that does not do this.

Now, thinking about this, if you place a component on a JPanel and it is the only component and you give the JPanel a GridBagLayout but you don't set any constraints on the component, then I'd imagine it would just fill up the JPanel.
