Unable to make the JTextArea scrollable..!

Question

Here is my code:

textArea.setLineWrap(true);
textArea.s         


        

Answer 1

Ok...I finally got it to work...I specified the same set bounds in the scroll pane instead of the text area.. Here is the code.!!! ^_^

        final JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea();
        textArea.setFont(new Font("MS UI Gothic", Font.PLAIN, 13));
        textArea.setLineWrap(true);
        //textArea.setBounds(77, 310, 474, 136);

        JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane (textArea, JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS, JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);         
        scroll.setBounds(77, 310, 474, 136);
        contentPane.add(scroll);
