looking JScrollPane method to default to bottom of list

Thread view:

I have a JScrollPane that holds a JPanel which I am appending items to.
I would like the JScrollPane to automatically scroll to the bottom so
the newly added element will be immediatly visible instead of forcing
the user to manually scroll down. I was looking through the method
list descriptions, but didnt see any. Wondering if I was mistaken or
if not, how to write code to force it to the bottom.

Thanks

Justin

JScrollPane has the method
public JViewport getViewport();
Look up the API doc of JViewport for a method that suits your need.
