Frequently updated Text container
I have this text container that is constantly updated (as in every 1250 milleseconds) and it flashes really bad and sets the scrollbars back to the top each time. Is there a good Swing (sense everything else is swing in the JFrame) text container that I could use for this? I'm justing JEditorPane because I need to display color (ANSII color) but it doesn't seem to be showing the color well.
Thanks,
Vagabon

Your question is so vague that we can't help.If you have a text file, then yes you need to use setText(...) to reset the entire file.If you data is more tabular, then maybe you should be using a JList or JTable and then only update the values that change.

It's ANSII text from an interactive internet conncetion (Telnet to be exact) comming through an inputstream. I seem to have fixed it, I was having it update for every single char read from the inputstream, I moved the line that updates it to outside the while loop that is used to read the inputstream. It flickers, but not often.
