jtabbedpane

I was wondering how you would get the color of the inset of a JTabbedPane. I cannot seem to get this color. Every attempt I make I get 236,236,236 which is the outside frame color, where the inside frame color is about 10 darker, 227,227,227 (using the built in apple color meter). I am setting the look and feel using UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); You can see this in an image that I found on the internet. http://pagesofinterest.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Quaqua-Maven-Netbeans.jpg Where the words "Panel's Title" is the area that I am getting

I want to override java look and feel. I just want to show the buttons differently. I want all the features of Windows Look and Feel but only buttons differently. I hope you get my point. Color color = new Color(220, 220, 220, 200); UIManager.put("OptionPane.background", color); UIManager.put("Panel.background", color); UIManager.put("Button.foreground", new Color(255, 255, 255, 255)); List<Object> gradients = new ArrayList<Object>(5); gradients.add(0.00f); gradients.add(0.00f); gradients.add(new Color(0xC1C1C1)); gradients.add(new Color(0xFFFFFF)); gradients.add(new Color(0x5C5D5C));

The code below is supposed to work a little like the Multi-Document Interface (MDI) you might see in a browser like FF, IE or Chrome. It presents 'documents' (a black buffered image as spacer) in a tabbed pane such that they can be dragged from the pane into a new (or existing) window by user choice. But it has had issues with closing frames once they have no more tabs, as well as closing the JVM when there are no further visible windows. I think I fixed them by checking with a Timer in the DragTabManager : It checks open frames for instances of DragTabFrame If it finds one, it check the tab

I'd like to know how to remove the margins between my JtabbedPane and my JFrame content pane and between my JTabbedPane and its internal JPanel. I circled the margins I want to remove. the green line is here to show the gap between the jpanel inside the jtabbedpane. I tried to look at some method named setMargin but it doesn't exist on a JTabbedPane. I also checked the Hgap and Vgap (both = 0) on the different layout (root content pane, my jpanel, etc). So any suggestions are welcome. Thanks. . I can't post images yet. It is up to the look and feel to decide how much space is around components

I am using Nimbus Look and feel. I needs to change the Background color and foreground color of the tab in JTabbedPane but the color doesn't set in JTabbedPane. I tried setForeground(), setForegroundAt(), setBackground() and setBackgroundAt() methods but it isnt works.This is my code public class TabbedPaneDemo extends JFrame { TabbedPaneDemo() { try { UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.nimbus.NimbusLookAndFeel"); } catch(Exception ex) {} setLayout(new BorderLayout()); setBounds(100, 100, 800, 500); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); JTabbedPane jt = new JTabbedPane

I want to build a tabbed interface in JAVA, with close button on each tab. For that I have used the following class: ButtonTabComponent I have a button on my GUI which creates a new tab. Let's say I press the New Tab button 4 times, therefore 4 tabs are created: | tab 0 | tab 1 | tab 2 | tab 3 | (each tab contain a close button) Now, I decide I want to close tab 1 and the problem appears, when I am closing a middle tab, all indexes are reordered - meaning that: | tab 0 | tab 2 | tab 3 | (tab 2 will have index 1) If I try now to create a new tab, the tab is created but new tab: | tab 0 | tab 2
