Description cahrens 2003-11-04 19:38:32 UTC

With a plain JEditorPane (no NetBeans classes), 
an underline appears below characters before they 
have been accepted in Japanese mode.  

However, in our NetBeans-based Editor this does 
not happen.  This makes it very difficult to type 
Japanese text in the editor.

Comment 1 Miloslav Metelka 2004-01-23 16:04:08 UTC

You are right, we do not highlight the background of the typed text in
input method. We need to start to support element breaking in the
editor in order to allow this.

Changed target milestone to TBD.

Setting TM to future.

nb day 06 survey mentioned this issue specifically;
am raising it to p2; can it be considered for nb6.0 ?

Comment 5 Miloslav Metelka 2006-06-02 11:55:06 UTC

We will resolve this for 6.0. Either by the new Editor API that we're preparing
or by tweaking the old APIs.
I've got an idea that instead of implementing breaking of the elements we could
store the composed text information as a document property an have a drawing
layer that would render the highlight according to the property. That could
simplify the implementation with the same result. I'll try to check this.

It looks like the same problem as the issue #14549.
