Sorry, I'm a large font/120 dpi user on most machines, Win7 Large/144 on my IPS rig. Software that's unaware of these annoys the devil out of me -- it's part of why I won't use most java based applets that have anything to do with text content.

Wow.  How big is your monitor?

Wow.  How big is your monitor?

On my workstation, that's Monitor[b]s[/]... plural. I've got a pair of 24" 1920x1200 in the wings (running off a spare GTS 250 I had) and center is a 27" 2560x1440 IPS.

At a comfortable seating distance (3 to 4 feet) the default fonts in most OS are too small -- though I started out using large fonts/120 dpi back on Windows 3.1 (well, back then it was called 8514 fonts) as a way to have smoother fonts -- on monitors most people would run 800x600 I ran 1024x768 with large fonts; fonts ended up the same size between the two.

My Media center I've got running Win7's "extra large" -- 200%/196 dpi.

Most native windows applications have no issues and auto-expand just fine. Well written websites will pick it up from the browser settings... but Java programs? Universally they're useless -- sure on things like editors you can usually change the size in the edit box, but that doesn't fix the uselessly tiny menus and dialogs.

Swing in particular tends to be bad for this... well on top of Swing applets just generally sucking in the first place -- Though it plagues just about everything written in Java. See "Sublime" and "Eclipse" -- both of which are pretty much useless to me.

FileReader r = new FileReader(fileName);
            area.read(r,null);
            r.close();
            currentFile = fileName;

 

 

 

i didnt understand this part of the code specially

Good praxis is to always read java doc about certain methods and such.

Hope that clears up a bit.

Thank you !

I was not searching any tutorial, but a simple editor in Java for testing UIM.

May you add for dummies how we generate with Javac.

Even if the code is simple enough to justify GUI designing by coding, it would be could to introduce a GUI designer like JForm designer or any other standalone designer.

It is text editor problem nothing else..If you only try the notepad text editor then it will also having the option for increase and decrease size....Please uninstalled your editor once then again Installed properly..I am sure it will work fine..
