I'm using the NetBeans 6.8 Swing GUI. I want to display multiple lines of text using text/word wrapping. I created a jTextArea and everything is working fine except for one thing. My TextArea background is the same color as my panel (intentionally). When I remove the border from the TextArea, it still leaves a very thing blue outline of the TextArea that I can't seem to get rid of.
Does anyone know how to remove the outline? It's not the border property.
a JTextArea shouldn't even have a border by default. Do you happen to have this JTextArea inside of a JScrollPane?
As an aside: you would do well for yourself to divorce yourself from the NetBeans GUI builder if you want to learn Swing coding.
Yeah, it automatically put it inside a jscroll pane. I've already started reading tutorials for building it myself. The NetBeans GUI is actually really annoying, but I did learn a lot just by playing around with it for the past few days.
I plan on starting to build my GUI from scratch using Swing tomorrow.
Thanks!
Then the border you see is from the JScrollPane.Quote:

This is not a true statement. It does not do justice to the truth.Quote:

The NetBeans GUI builder is patiently and patently evil.
