      • getInputAttributes

        public MutableAttributeSet getInputAttributes​()
        Gets the input attributes for the pane. When the caret moves and there is no selection, the input attributes are automatically mutated to reflect the character attributes of the current caret location. The styled editing actions use the input attributes to carry out their actions.
        Returns:
        the attribute set
      • getCharacterAttributeRun

        public Element getCharacterAttributeRun​()
        Fetches the element representing the current run of character attributes for the caret.
        Returns:
        the element
      • getActions

        public Action[] getActions​()
        Fetches the command list for the editor. This is the list of commands supported by the superclass augmented by the collection of commands defined locally for style operations.

        getActions in class DefaultEditorKit
        Returns:
        the command list

      • deinstall

        public void deinstall​(JEditorPane c)

      • getViewFactory

        public ViewFactory getViewFactory​()
        Fetches a factory that is suitable for producing views of any models that are produced by this kit. This is implemented to return View implementations for the following kinds of elements:
        • AbstractDocument.ContentElementName
        • AbstractDocument.ParagraphElementName
        • AbstractDocument.SectionElementName
        • StyleConstants.ComponentElementName
        • StyleConstants.IconElementName

      • createInputAttributes

        protected void createInputAttributes​(Element element,
                                             MutableAttributeSet set)
        Copies the key/values in elements AttributeSet into set. This does not copy component, icon, or element names attributes. Subclasses may wish to refine what is and what isn't copied here. But be sure to first remove all the attributes that are in set.

        This is called anytime the caret moves over a different location.

        Parameters:
        element - the element
        set - the attributes
