how to set setPreferredHeightLimits for text area in the wtkx fil
Dear All,
I would like to ask how to set setPreferredHeightLimits for text area in
the wtkx file?
For example,I would like limit the max line is 5.
Thanks a lot.
<TextArea wtkx:id="TextArea1" preferredWidth="120" preferredHeight="120"/>
Best regards,
Ken Jiang

That would be a nice feature. Could that be calculated using script?

Ken,
I don't think there is a way to do this with Pivot at the moment, but it
would be a useful feature to have. (Also for ListView rows, TableView rows
and maybe TreeView nodes)
For the moment, you could create a custom subclass of TextArea which would
have a 'maxLines' property and getMaxLines() / setMaxLines(int lines)
accessors.
In the setMaxLines(int lines) method, you would have to write some custom
code to calculate the correct height, and then call the setHeight(int
height) method of the parent TextArea.
(or setMinimumPreferredHeight() / setMaximumPreferredHeight() )
You would have to decide what to do if the text in the TextArea uses
multiple fonts / sizes / styles.
Once you have created your class (and ensured it is on the classpath), you
can alter your wtkx file.
<TextArea wtkx:id="TextArea1" preferredWidth="120" preferredHeight="120"/>
would become something like
<MyTextArea wtkx:id="TextArea1" preferredWidth="120" maxLines="5"
xmlns="com.mycompany.pivot.wtk" />

There is currently no way to specify a max line count. However, you can specify a maximum preferred height. If you multiple the font height by 5 and use this as the value for the maximumPreferredHeight attribute, it will produce the same result as setting the max line count to 5.
