How to set JSpinner as non editable?

I am creating time picker using a JSpinner. The text inside the JSpinner is editable. But I want to set the JSpinner as non editable, because there is the chance to give an invalid value. Can anyone help me?

Solution

  • Try the following:

    JSpinner spinner = ...;
((DefaultEditor) spinner.getEditor()).getTextField().setEditable(false);

    This should work as long as you didn't change the spinner editor yourself by calling spinner.setEditor(...).
