JGoodies JLabel with multiple lines

[Tomek]

Hi

I use JGoodies Forms to create a GUI application. I need to show a simple
multiline description in the window. I use JLabel with html text like
"<HTML... my description ... </HTML>".

Because it's multiline, java never knows how much lines it contains and what
is initial height of that component. When I add this do panel and show on
the screen, my frame has to small height and hides some components. General
problem is that I use different fonts (almst blind user can select bigger
fonts).

code:
-------------------------------
FormLayout layout = new FormLayout("fil l:500px", // kolumny
"p, 10px, p, 10px, p, 7px, p, 7px, p, 10px, p"); //
wiersze

PanelBuilder builder = new PanelBuilder(la yout);
builder.setDefa ultDialogBorder ();
CellConstraints cc = new CellConstraints ();

............
builder.add(tex tArea, cc.xy(1,3));
............
getContentPane( ).add(builder.g etPanel());
pack();
Can anyone help me ?

You may want to ask this question at the JGoodies support groups. You
will get a quick answer from the developer. You just need to get a free
'java.net' account to submit questions.
