I'm creating small game for children to teach maths.For that I need JTextField to operate right to left. It mean that If I type "A" then "B" using keyboard, in JTextField it should be display like "BA". I think you guys can get a idea now.
Thanks in advance. :)

Use setComponentOrientation method of JTextComponent Class
textField.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);

If I type "A" then "B" then "C" in textfield it should display like "CBA" – FxMax Feb 02 '15 at 16:14

What you ask for is not a feature of JTextfield or its parents.
One way you can get what you want is to use Apache Commons Lang library and class StringUtils.reverse("flip") -> "pilf".
