How to wrap words in checkbox,push buttons

[gunjan.raizada]

Is it possible to wrap sentence thru 'checkbox.setText()?
Basically i need to keep text of check box in 2 lines.
if I do same thing in case of label --label.setText("Hello\nWorld").
o/p--Hello
World

but in case of check box or push button i.e. chkbox.setText("Hello\nWorld");
O/p---Hello[]World..

Infact no escape sequence(\n,\f,\r etc) is working in any of the button case.

Did you try to use with HTML codes in the setText() function. I hope it support for HTML tags.

HTML codes don't work.

http : // dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.platform.swt/msg14885.html says wrapping is not supported on a button.

You would be able to fake it with an image, or you might be able to able to override it with a paint listener (but I have a feeling that at least on Windows the native button object does not support custom painting).

Are you talking about Swing or AWT. Swing support for wrapping. I'm working on that way in NetBeans.
