How to reduce the Font of a text from LWUIT TextArea

[pavanragi]

Hi
I have created LWUIT TextArea,and i added paragraphs of text to my Text area ,now i want to reduce my text area font size,i have used the below code:

TextArea big = new TextArea(detailNews.getDescription());
Font createSystemFont = Font.createSystemFont(Font.FACE_SYSTEM, Font.STYLE_ITALIC, Font.SIZE_SMALL); big.getStyle().setFont(createSystemFont); big.setEditable(false);
form2.addComponent(big);
form2.show();

But i am not able to reduce the font of my text?
How to align the paragraph of text on text area?

Which version of LWUIT binary used? And what platform is it tested(S40 or Symbian)?

I tested with following code in s40 using the lwuit binary got it from https://projects.developer.nokia.com..._for_Series_40 and works for me.

f = new Form(null);

TextArea big = new TextArea("this is lwuit textarea");
Font createSystemFont = Font.createSystemFont(Font.FACE_SYSTEM, Font.STYLE_ITALIC, Font.SIZE_SMALL); // use Font.SIZE_LARGE for testing
big.getStyle().setFont(createSystemFont); big.setEditable(false);
f.addComponent(big);
f.show();

HI bandarap,

I am using the LWUIT jar file from this url http://www.java2s.com/Code/Jar/l/DownloadLWUITjar.htm, and i am using Nokia SDK 1.1 Device,
As your suggestion, i have downloaded LWUIT series 40 from this URL: https://projects.developer.nokia.com..._for_Series_40 , can you tell me from that which jar file i need to use....,instead of previously using jar file..

text from the readme.txt file

Applications using LWUIT jars under specific release folder are expected to compile and run on the same release but in earlier versions they only run but do not compile.

in your case, choose the jar Series-40-binaries-TP2u2\bin\sdk1.1\S40-with-themes.jar

Here the sample Code For TextArea Font size:

TextArea big = new TextArea(detailNews.getDescription());

Font createSystemFont = Font.createSystemFont(Font.FACE_SYSTEM, Font.STYLE_ITALIC,Font.SIZE_SMALL);

big.getUnselectedStyle().setFont(createSystemFont);


big.getSelectedStyle().setFont(createSystemFont);

add big to form
form.addComponent(big);
form.show();
