If the user press The key (T) print in text area (J) directly
without appear T and change it with J in text area.

Hello Mohd and welcome to the Java Programming Forums.

I don't think its possible to swap the keyboards mapping in this way.

What you could do is write an ActionListener method so that when a character is typed into the jtextarea, it is automatically updated and swapped with the desired character.

I'm sure it will be quite complicated though.

Have you wrote any code already? I will try to post some kind of example to help you get started..

Hi JavaPF,

I solved this problem as you said
I used ActionListener and when user type for example j
type i or anything else

in method keyTyped I used consume() to stop typing any character to jtextarea
and in keyPressed() here was my coding.
Get the character or keycode of the key and
did what I want.

Thank you.

Hello Mohd,

Thats brilliant! I'm glad you solved your problem.

Would it be possible to post your code here? It may help others in the future :)
