Is there a "word wrap" property for JLabel?

I am displaying some text in a JLabel. Basically I am generating that text dynamically, and then I apply some HTML tags (e.g., BR and B) to format the text. Finally I assign this formatted text to my JLabel.

Now I want my Jlabel to automatically wrap the text to the next line when it reaches the end of screen, like the "Word Wrap" feature in Note Pad.

How can I do that?

Solution

  • Should work if you wrap the text in <html>...</html>

    UPDATE: You should probably set maximum size, too, then.
