How to set height and width of JavaFX TextArea?


TextArea txt = new TextArea();

What method do I call to set the height and width of this TextArea?


Solution

  • TextArea textArea = new TextArea(); //making a TexrArea object
    double height = 400; //making a variable called height with a value 400
    double width = 300;  //making a variable called height with a value 300
    
    //You can use these methods
    textArea.setPrefHeight(height);  //sets height of the TextArea to 400 pixels 
    textArea.setPrefWidth(width);    //sets width of the TextArea to 300 pixels
