Hi all!
i've played around with your tool, and noticed that it doesn't support long text.
in case of long text(too long to display in the box), the text just diappears rather than do a tooltip or break to two lines or something.

Are you planning to support this feature or am i supposed to bypass it in code ?

Thanks.

Hi,

At this time the JDiagram text formatter can break lines only between separate words. If you have a single very long word, it won't be displayed. We are going to change this soon to allow breaking a single word if it doesn't fit inside the box. Until then, I guess you can insert new-line symbols in the text yourself  Undecided

Thanks.
Sounds like a good solution for now.
However, i have a question regarding the future support you're planning.
Is it going to be "..." like swing, cause i'm restricted to a static height of boxes, so any line breaking would be "bad" for me.
Thanks.

Do you mean you need to disable line breaking altogether, and display "..." at the end of each line  that does not fit?

Hi,

You've released the 1.2.1 version. Is this feature inside? How can I use it?

Thanks,
Yoav

Hi,

I saw you made some changes in the text formatting properties of the Box.
Do you plan to implement the feature discussed here? Since you've added setWrapAtCharacter to 1.2.2, all you need to support this feature is to replace the last 3 letters with "..." and that's it...

Thanks,
Yoav

Hi,

We have added the NoWrap property to let you disable line breaking, however forgot about the ellipsis, so long text is just clipped at the box boundaries without adding "..." to it.

Is this kind of change/addition planned for one of the future releases?

Thanks,
