Im doing a notepad with java and im trying to implement a zoom in/out to a JTextarea content.

For now what I have done is increase or decrease the font of the text to achieve the zoom effect. But what I want is to zoom the JTextArea component.

I know there are classes like Graphics and Graphics2D and methods like paint or paintcomponent but i have no idea how to use them.

I want to zoom from the JMenuItem button that I created.

Thanks in advance!

Why? Are you designing new fonts? – Gilbert Le Blanc Mar 21 '20 at 21:13
