Annoyingly, the first one gets expanded to /home/myuser/31e57656-27e3-46a4-abbd- a793c463adba@googlegroups.com and is reported as such in the resulting error message, but diving in to googlegroups from the top found the thread easily enough and you're right: it was e.d.programmer's second example that pressed all the right buttons. Its late, so I'll scratch my head over a clean method of incorporating it into an existing subclass of JLabel tomorrow. Currently I'm considering making it into a Font creation class so I can hand its output to the JLabel subclass instances via setFont(). -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
