Sort Icon Should not overlap Column name

Postby mgs » Fri Jan 23, 2009 12:23 pm

Is there something you can do about the sort icon overlapping the column name? This really makes the table ugly. The icon should be anchor to the top-right and should never overlap the column name. This is reproducible in SortableTable demo "boolean column".

This is an issue that has puzzled us for a while. We didn't want to create our own header cell renderer as it will make the native XP header or Vista header style disappear. So what we did is to paint the arrows on top of a regular JTableHeader. Since we don't have control over how the header title is painted (which is part of header cell renderers), we don't know how to clip the title. So far we couldn't find a good solution. So please let me know if you have any better idea.

Thanks,
