I need to display a JLabel text in this format. Hoffenheim 1 : 0

  • 0

I need to display a JLabel text in this format.

Hoffenheim  1 : 0  Koeln
    Bayern  2 : 1  HSV

I just can’t get this done. I’ve tried String.format() without luck.
Any advice?

    You can use HTML. Read How to Use HTML in Swing Components for details. For example you could build a table, similar to the following: 

    import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class StringDemo {

    public static void main(String arg[]){

        StringBuilder buff = new StringBuilder();
        buff.append("<html><table>");
        buff.append(String.format("<tr><td align='right'>%s</td><td>:</td><td>%s</td></tr>", "Hoffenheim  1", "0  Koeln"));
        buff.append(String.format("<tr><td align='right'>%s</td><td>:</td><td>%s</td></tr>", "Bayern  2", "1  HSV"));
        buff.append("</table></html>");

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, new JLabel(buff.toString()));
    }
}
