Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible to edit specific rows from inside a textarea in a java swing application. So if I had a text area that held the following content:

Row1
Row2
Row3

And I had a command like this:
jTextArea1.getText().row[2].setText("New Row2");

Then I would want a result like this:

Row1
New Row2
Row3

Alternatively:

I would like to know when there is a break after each line, if there is a break, it should increment an int. i.e.
Row1 (i=0)
Row2 (i=1)
Row3 (i=2)
etc...

Thanks,

Because you are able to set number of row doesn't mean you are able to edit that way.
You need to play around with position of Caret
