Text field

[Debojit Nag]

Hi all
Please give me a solution, if any, regarding text field size. According to the specs i have to make a text field for user input. Usually at the beginning it shows up a small rectangle and become larger as text become larger( if max char supports). I need a big( 5/6 lines) rectangle at the starting. How could i make this???

Regards

Hi,


You can simply give the size on textField constuctor

TextField txt=new TextField("label","text",50,TextField.ANY);
keep changing that size until it satisfies ur needs.

hi
Yeah, thats true, but not in my case. This will show up the text field with by default height and then goes on increasing as no. of line increased.But I need bigger height at the beginning.

Hi,


Simply use

txt.setPreferredSize(-1,200);
where txt is Textbox initialised first!
