Hi everyone,

i have a JTextArea to which i add text using the append method. The JTextArea is inside a JScrollPane. When there is enough text added in the JTextArea, it does not scroll automatically to show the text added last. Therefore the text added last gets hidden.

Can somebody suggest a way using which i could scroll down the textarea automatically as the text is added.

Thanks...!!
