I tried posting this message on my favorite Java forum, but I got no
response. I find as my questions become more advanced it is harder to
get assistance. :]

So I thought I would try it here, although it is not directly related
to OpenJUMP. (It is a question I am trying to solve as part of my free
form labeling plug-in.)

"I'm trying to figure out the best way to obtain AttributedString
objects from a Swing component. It seems like the Swing text
components that allow you to work with styled text store their text in
a StyledDocument class or something similar.

What I would really like is to find a way to obtain AttributedString
object from these components. Is there a way to do this directly? How
about indirectly? I took a look at the Javadoc for StyledDocument, and
it appears its getText methods return plain Strings, which means I
would loose the styling information.

I need AttributedString objects because I am doing custom rendering of
text on a JPanel using the TextLayout class.

Thank you for any suggestions."
