hi!

I am doing a java panel, with text line.
I don't know how to control the size of the text line.
I tried to use setPrefrableSize but it didn't
help.

Thanks in advance.

It might help if you could be more specific. Are you using a SWING or SWT?
Are you using a layout? If so, which one? What control are you using? Are
you concerned with (a) the display size of the widget or (b) the number of
characters that can be entered? Answers to these questions might allow
someone to give you some help. HTH. Mark Dexter

Hi Mark,
Thank you.
In an answer to your qestions: I am using SWT and a Border layout.
I don't think that the control here is relevant,because I am just
interesting in the display size of the Text area.

Can you tell me how to get a smaller Text area?

Thank you in advance.
Avnit.

Are you sure you're not using Swing? I believe a BorderLayout is a Swing
class. If so, here is a link to the Java Tutorials that might be helpful:
