Multiline text in JLabel

How can I make the text of a JLabel extend onto another line?

Solution

  • You can do it by putting HTML in the code, so:

    JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setLayout(new GridLayout());
JLabel label = new JLabel("<html>First line<br>Second line</html>");
frame.add(label);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
