Hi!
I have a question regarding to JList inside of a JScrollPane.
*Situation:
*I have a JList component inside a JScrollPane, which is added to a panel of
a frame.
The model of the list is a DefaultListModel, which contains objects having
toString() overridden to produce the text visible in the JList.
I change one of the objects of the list, and its toString() method will
return a much longer string which does not fit in the size of the list. I
even call the JList's revalidate() and repaint() methods.
*
Expected behaviour:
*The JScrollPane should display the scrollbars giving the possibility to
scroll to see the long name of the item.
*What happens:*
The string returned by toString() is truncated, and containing a "..." in
the end signing that the string is longer than what we can see.
And now if I add a new element to the list (or to its model), then the
scrollbars will appear and the truncated string ending with "..." is
displayed now correctly, as the whole string.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to call something to tell the JList or
JScrollPane not to truncate the string but to display the scrollbars?
Thanks,
András
