Hi,
yes, as soon as i posted this msg, i tried both repaint()  and invalidate()
functions. both dont solve the problem. is there anything like the "autosize"
property/method ?
actually, i think the repaint does happen as soon as property is changed. or
else how could the text be redrawn with the font size?

or lets say, if i extend the JLabel can i override some function which would
allow me to display full text avoiding the "...". which function of JLabel
does this thing exactly?

Thanks for any info
