JideTabbedPane Border

[robert]

Hi,

I'm evaluating Jide for possible inclusion in my project. The first component I'm trying out is the JideTabbedPane. I'm wondering if there is a way to remove the border around the pane? If not, could this be added in a future release?

I'm currently using JGoodies Looks. With Looks I can remove the border with this:

Code: Select all

tabPane.putClientProperty(Options.NO_CONTENT_BORDER_KEY, Boolean.TRUE)


However, when I change the JTabbedPane to a JideTabbedPane, a border is added back. I find that the border is an unnecessary visual distraction, especially when using Windows LAF, where the border is a bright orange colour. Is there any way to remove this?

Also, setBoldActiveTab(true) does not seem to work when using Metal LAF.


Thanks

Actually the orange color matches with the tab selection color which is used to indcate the tabbed pane has focus.

An easy way to get rid of is to use JideTabbedPane#setContentBorderInsets(new Insets(0,0,0,0)).

Thanks,

Thanks for the solution. I ended up setting the Insets to (1,0,0,0). This retains a small top border, similar to the JGoodies Looks.
