Class StyledEditorKit

    java.lang.Object
      javax.swing.text.EditorKit

              javax.swing.text.StyledEditorKit

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable, Cloneable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  HTMLEditorKit, RTFEditorKit

    public class StyledEditorKit

extends DefaultEditorKit

This is the set of things needed by a text component to be a reasonably functioning editor for some type of text document. This implementation provides a default implementation which treats text as styled text and provides a minimal set of actions for editing styled text.

Nested Class Summary
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.AlignmentAction` An action to set paragraph alignment.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.BoldAction` An action to toggle the bold attribute.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.FontFamilyAction` An action to set the font family in the associated JEditorPane.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction` An action to set the font size in the associated JEditorPane.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.ForegroundAction` An action to set foreground color.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.ItalicAction` An action to toggle the italic attribute.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.StyledTextAction` An action that assumes it's being fired on a JEditorPane with a StyledEditorKit (or subclass) installed.
`static class` | `StyledEditorKit.UnderlineAction` An action to toggle the underline attribute.

Constructor Detail

### StyledEditorKit

    public StyledEditorKit()

  Creates a new EditorKit used for styled documents.

Method Detail

### getInputAttributes

    public MutableAttributeSet getInputAttributes()

  Gets the input attributes for the pane. When the caret moves and there is no selection, the input attributes are automatically mutated to reflect the character attributes of the current caret location. The styled editing actions use the input attributes to carry out their actions.

  Returns:
    the attribute set

### getCharacterAttributeRun

    public Element getCharacterAttributeRun()

  Fetches the element representing the current run of character attributes for the caret.

  Returns:
    the element

### getActions

    public Action[] getActions()

  Fetches the command list for the editor. This is the list of commands supported by the superclass augmented by the collection of commands defined locally for style operations.

  Overrides:
    `getActions` in class `DefaultEditorKit`
  Returns:
    the command list

### createDefaultDocument

    public Document createDefaultDocument()

  Creates an uninitialized text storage model that is appropriate for this type of editor.

  Overrides:
    `createDefaultDocument` in class `DefaultEditorKit`
  Returns:
    the model

### install

    public void install(JEditorPane c)

  Called when the kit is being installed into a JEditorPane.

  Overrides:
    `install` in class `EditorKit`
  Parameters:
    `c` - the JEditorPane

### deinstall

    public void deinstall(JEditorPane c)

  Called when the kit is being removed from the JEditorPane. This is used to unregister any listeners that were attached.

  Overrides:
    `deinstall` in class `EditorKit`
  Parameters:
    `c` - the JEditorPane

### getViewFactory

    public ViewFactory getViewFactory()

  Fetches a factory that is suitable for producing views of any models that are produced by this kit. This is implemented to return View implementations for the following kinds of elements:
  - AbstractDocument.ContentElementName
  - AbstractDocument.ParagraphElementName
  - AbstractDocument.SectionElementName
  - StyleConstants.ComponentElementName
  - StyleConstants.IconElementName

  Overrides:
    `getViewFactory` in class `DefaultEditorKit`
  Returns:
    the factory

### clone

    public Object clone()

  Creates a copy of the editor kit.

  Overrides:
    `clone` in class `EditorKit`
  Returns:
    the copy
  See Also:
    `Cloneable`

### createInputAttributes

    protected void createInputAttributes(Element element,
                                         MutableAttributeSet set)

  Copies the key/values in `element`s AttributeSet into `set`. This does not copy component, icon, or element names attributes. Subclasses may wish to refine what is and what isn't copied here. But be sure to first remove all the attributes that are in `set`.

  This is called anytime the caret moves over a different location.
