ta - a text area
Returns:
the UI

getPropertyPrefix

protected void installDefaults()
Description copied from class: BasicTextUI
Initializes component properties, e.g. font, foreground, background, caret color, selection color, selected text color, disabled text color, and border color.

propertyChange

protected void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt)
This method gets called when a bound property is changed on the associated JTextComponent. This is a hook which UI implementations may change to reflect how the UI displays bound properties of JTextComponent subclasses. This is implemented to rebuild the View when the WrapLine or the WrapStyleWord property changes.

Overrides:
propertyChange in class BasicTextUI
Parameters:
evt - the property change event

getPreferredSize

public Dimension getPreferredSize(JComponent c)
The method is overridden to take into account caret width.

Overrides:
getPreferredSize in class BasicTextUI
Parameters:
c - the editor component
Returns:
the preferred size
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if invalid value is passed

1.5
See Also:
JComponent.getPreferredSize(), LayoutManager.preferredLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)

getMinimumSize

public Dimension getMinimumSize(JComponent c)
The method is overridden to take into account caret width.

Overrides:
getMinimumSize in class BasicTextUI
Parameters:
c - the editor component
Returns:
the minimum size
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if invalid value is passed
Since:
