Java : JFormattedTextField saving numbers

Solution 1:

Pass DecimalFormat to the JFormattedTextField constructor. It has following methods

setMaximumIntegerDigits
setMinimumIntegerDigits
setMaximumFractionDigits
setMinimumFractionDigits

Solution 2:

even JFormattedTextField implements DecimalFormat and NumberFormat, better would be use DocumentListener,

1) its not good jumping betweens Big Figures by using DecimalFormat or NumberFormat simple User-non-Acceptable by implements setMinimum() and setMaximum()

2) JTextComponents by default implements insert the text, then any workaround is so User-non-Acceptable by implementsJFormattedTextField with DecimalFormat orNumberFormat by implements setMinimum() and setMaximum()

3) its very confortable je use DocumentListener allows add any amount, but with highlighting out-off range

4) or use JSpinner with SpinnerNumberModel, there is posible to set Formatter as for Number Instance
