Jtable Look and feel of editing cell

Question

There is a JTable with DefaultTableModel. There is table's setforeground, setbackground and setselectioncolor methods. Also when you are editing the cell you have table.setDefaultEditor(Object.class, new DefaultCellEditor(field)) method to change the editing cell's font color. Now how to change the border color of the editing cell. Thankyou.`

Answer 1

You can use any of the following keys in UIManager.put() to affect the corresponding Border:

• Table.focusCellHighlightBorder
• Table.scrollPaneBorder
• TableHeader.cellBorder

For example:

UIManager.put("Table.focusCellHighlightBorder",
    new BorderUIResource(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.red)));

You can also change the color in your custom renderer/editor; PositiveIntegerCellEditor is an example. See also Concepts: Editors and Renderers.
