I want to build one sample to remove highlight from words that matches the filter of my app. Therefore I was basing myself on the sample below:
public void removeHighlights(JTextComponent jTextArea) {
Highlighter hilite = jTextArea.getHighlighter();
Highlighter.Highlight[] hilites = hilite.getHighlights();
for (int i = 0; i < hilites.length; i++) {
if (hilites[i].getPainter() instanceof TextHighLighter) {
hilite.removeHighlight(hilites[i]);
}
}
}
This sample works to remove all highlights of the Text Area. For example, if I have three selected words and I uncheck the box of one, all of the filters will be removed and I only want to remove the highlight of the unchecked word.. Is there a simple way to check which word matches the filter? or do I need to do it manually? cos until now I found nothing sucessful on my research
Thanks in advance
FINAL EDIT :
Logic working for me based on @camickr answer:
public void removeHighlights(JTextComponent jTextArea, String turnLightOff) {
Highlighter hilite = jTextArea.getHighlighter();
Highlighter.Highlight[] hilites = hilite.getHighlights();
for (int i = 0; i < hilites.length; i++) {
int wordLenght = hilites[i].getEndOffset() - hilites[i].getStartOffset();
if(wordLenght == turnLightOff.length()){
if (hilites[i].getPainter() instanceof TextHighLighter) {
hilite.removeHighlight(hilites[i]);
}
}
}
}
Is there a simple way to check which word matches the filter?
No.
or do I need to do it manually?
Yes. Each highlight contains the start/end offset of the highlight. So you use those values to get the text from the Document. If the text matches, then remove the highlight.

If you don't want to keep any highlights you can just remove them all.
highlighter.removeAllHighlights();
