Java Forum / General / January 2006JOption Dialog and color...
Hi, In a part of my program I am openeing an error warnign as following: if (myVal != yourVal) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"WARNING: \n MyVal does NOT yourVal.","Error Dialog",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); } But I need that message "WARNING: \n MyVal does NOT yourVal" printed out in red color. and currently its printing in black. Any suggestions? Thanks, ecoswiss > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > But I need that message "WARNING: \n MyVal does NOT yourVal" printed > out in red color. and currently its printing in black. Any suggestions? Use HTML. "<HTML><FONT color=\"red\">WARNING:<BR>MyVal does NOT yourVal</FONT></HTML>" > Thanks, > > ecoswiss > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > But I need that message "WARNING: \n MyVal does NOT yourVal" printed > out in red color. and currently its printing in black. Any suggestions? Parts of Swing allow you to use HTML. I haven't tried it with JOptionPane, but I suppose it's worth a shot. <code> JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"<font color='#FF0000'>WARNING: \n MyVal does NOT yourVal.</font>","Error Dialog",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); </code> Alternatively, you could manually create a dialog, and put in a JLabel set to whatever color you want. See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/swing/JDialog.html#JDialog() - Oliver >>Hi, >> [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > > - Oliver Or :) UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageForeground", Color.RED); After using that you'd better set Color back to its original.

Using UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageForeground", java.awt.Color.red); I get message: Cannot resolve symbol symbol: variable UIManager Do I need to defien it somewhere? Using html chanegs the color but font size and style is totally changed from other dialog messages...... Which looks a bit funny.... any suggestions? Thanks a lot! >>Or :) >>UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageForeground", Color.RED); [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Thanks a lot!

You need this import import javax.swing.UIManager;  SignatureThanks in Advance...
