Aligning icon to the left in JTabbedPane in Nimbus Look and Feel

Question

I was creating an application with JTabbedPane using Nimbus look and feel

I have used this code to place tabs:

pane.addTab(\"Welcome\",n         


        

Answer 1

There is a simpler solution using HTML formatting. This is an example using html code to format text, but you can also format other elements within the tab:

final String PRE_HTML = "
"; 
final String POST_HTML = "
"; 

tabbedpane.setTitleAt(0, PRE_HTML + "your title" + POST_HTML);
tabbedpane.setTitleAt(2, PRE_HTML + "your title 2" + POST_HTML);
