Which class is best to use if I want to output text, but not to the console? I'd like to give the user the output in a nice, formatted manner with a specific font. The output will be approximately one page worth of text. I'd like to be able to scroll, so I'll need JScrollPane too. Or is there a better way?
I've been reading about JTextArea, but I don't know if that is the best way to go about this.
I have my JTextPane working, all of my output looks good, so now I am trying to extend my knowledge. Is there a way to change the font color of individual words? I see how to change the color of everything in the Pane, but I want more granularity. For example, to add emphasis to a result such as:
The number of comparisons was 412
Can color specs be added to a Style or a SimpleAttributeSet, so whenever that Style (or SimpleAttributeSet) is used, the text is colored? It would seem to be a simple solution if I could just apply a Style to the outputting of that variable that resolves to 412, but I don't know if that is possible.
