Multiline JLabels - Java [duplicate]

Answer 1

MultiLine Label with auto adjust height. Wrap text in Label

private void wrapLabelText(JLabel label, String text) {
    FontMetrics fm = label.getFontMetrics(label.getFont());
    PlainDocument doc = new PlainDocument();
    Segment segment = new Segment();
    try {
        doc.insertString(0, text, null);
    } catch (BadLocationException e) {

    }

    StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("");
    int noOfLine = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < text.length();) {
        try {
            doc.getText(i, text.length() - i, segment);
        } catch (BadLocationException e) {
            throw new Error("Can't get line text");
        }
        int breakpoint = Utilities.getBreakLocation(segment, fm, 0, this.width - pointerSignWidth - insets.left - insets.right, null, 0);
        sb.append(text.substring(i, i + breakpoint));
        sb.append("
");
        i += breakpoint;

        noOfLine++;
    }
    sb.append("");
    label.setText(sb.toString());

    labelHeight = noOfLine * fm.getHeight();
    setSize();
}
