    <p>You can use a NavigationFilter for this.</p> <p>Here is an example to get you started:</p> <pre><code>import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.text.*; public class NavigationFilterPrefixWithBackspace extends NavigationFilter { private int prefixLength; private Action deletePrevious; public NavigationFilterPrefixWithBackspace(int prefixLength, JTextComponent component) { this.prefixLength = prefixLength; deletePrevious = component.getActionMap().get("delete-previous"); component.getActionMap().put("delete-previous", new BackspaceAction()); component.setCaretPosition(prefixLength); } public void setDot(NavigationFilter.FilterBypass fb, int dot, Position.Bias bias) { fb.setDot(Math.max(dot, prefixLength), bias); } public void moveDot(NavigationFilter.FilterBypass fb, int dot, Position.Bias bias) { fb.moveDot(Math.max(dot, prefixLength), bias); } class BackspaceAction extends AbstractAction { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { JTextComponent component = (JTextComponent)e.getSource(); if (component.getCaretPosition() &gt; prefixLength) { deletePrevious.actionPerformed( null ); } } } public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception { JTextField textField = new JTextField("Prefix_", 20); textField.setNavigationFilter( new NavigationFilterPrefixWithBackspace(7, textField) ); JFrame frame = new JFrame("Navigation Filter Example"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.getContentPane().add(textField); frame.pack(); frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null ); frame.setVisible(true); } } </code></pre> <p>I believe this is a how a JFormattedTextField works. So I'm not sure if you can use this with a formatted text field as is may replace the default behaviour.</p>
