Get Row/Column In JEditorPane

[67726e]

Is it possible to get the row and column when you click on a spot in the JEditorPane. My current thought is to get the position of the click event and do a few calculations based on the row height and column width but I wanted to know if there is an existing way that is less likely to incur errors.

JEditorPane extends JTextComponent which has a nifty method viewToModel(Point pt). You should check out the API for more on this method and give it a try. Please let us know if it doesn't work.

Works like a charm. I never realized this was the function I was looking for when I was browsing the API. Thanks for the help.

You'd figure this would be a 'get*' method.

I don't think it's a getXXX method because you're not really getting a property of the view but in fact are trying to get something much more complex, to use a point on the view to get information from the model.

You're welcome.
