default field in Dialog

[Dylan Margoczi]

Hi

I need to make my second field in a joption pane my default field to enter text while still being able to press the enter key for the ok button, is there any way of doing this?

Object[] msg = new Object
{
"1:", firstField,
"2: ", secondField,
"3: ", thirdField
};
 
String[] options = {"Ok", "Cancel"};

JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, msg, "Custom",
JOptionPane.DEFAULT_OPTION,
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, null,
options, options[0]);

You can add a KeyListener to your second Field.

I don't see in what way this will help.

I basically want to have focus on it as it's a password field, and not have to tab through the fields as i should not need to change the values in the other fields. then just press the enter key to continue.

We discussed this here just last week.

Sorry about that.

I sorted out the problem by just creating my own custom dialog.
but thanks.
