Constructor Detail

### BasicTextAreaUI

    public BasicTextAreaUI()

  Constructs a new BasicTextAreaUI object.

Method Detail

### createUI

    public static ComponentUI createUI(JComponent ta)

  Creates a UI for a JTextArea.

  Parameters:
    `ta` - a text area
  Returns:
    the UI

### getPropertyPrefix

    protected String getPropertyPrefix()

  Fetches the name used as a key to look up properties through the UIManager. This is used as a prefix to all the standard text properties.

  Specified by:
    `getPropertyPrefix` in class `BasicTextUI`
  Returns:
    the name ("TextArea")

### installDefaults

    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. The font, foreground, and background properties are only set if their current value is either null or a UIResource, other properties are set if the current value is null.

  Overrides:
    `installDefaults` in class `BasicTextUI`
  See Also:
    `BasicTextUI.uninstallDefaults()`, `BasicTextUI.installUI(javax.swing.JComponent)`

### 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
  Since:
    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:
    1.5
  See Also:
    `JComponent.getMinimumSize()`, `LayoutManager.minimumLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)`, `ComponentUI.getPreferredSize(javax.swing.JComponent)`

### create

    public View create(Element elem)

  Creates the view for an element. Returns a WrappedPlainView or PlainView.

  Specified by:
    `create` in interface `ViewFactory`
  Overrides:
    `create` in class `BasicTextUI`
  Parameters:
    `elem` - the element
