JideTabbedPane Set Selected tab to bold.

[bstoll]

Hi I am trying to use the JideTabbedPane to set the active tab to bold.
When i call setBoldActiveTab() it does not seem to set the active tabs font to bold.
Any Help would be appreciated.

Code: Select all

JPanel summaryView = summaryPanel.getJPanel();
    JPanel propertiesView = propertiesPanel.getJPanel();
    JPanel designationView = designationPanel.getJPanel();
    JPanel pointView = pointEditor.getJPanel();

    // summaryView.setBorder(BorderFactory.)

    panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    JideTabbedPane tabs = new JideTabbedPane(JTabbedPane.BOTTOM,
        JideTabbedPane.SCROLL_TAB_LAYOUT);
    tabs.setColorTheme(JideTabbedPane.COLOR_THEME_DEFAULT);
    tabs.setTabColorProvider(new JideTabbedPane.ColorProvider() {

      @Override
      public Color getBackgroundAt(int arg0) {
        return Color.ORANGE;
      }

      @Override
      public Color getForegroundAt(int arg0) {
        return Color.BLACK;
      }

      @Override
      public float getGradientRatio(int arg0) {
        return 0.86f;
      }

    });

    tabs.setTabShape(JideTabbedPane.SHAPE_FLAT);
    tabs.setTabResizeMode(JideTabbedPane.RESIZE_MODE_FIT);
    tabs.setBoldActiveTab(true);
    tabs.setContentBorderInsets(new Insets(BORDER_SIZE, BORDER_SIZE,
        BORDER_SIZE, BORDER_SIZE));
    tabs.setAutoRequestFocus(true);
    tabs.addTab("Summary", summaryView);
    tabs.addTab("Properties", propertiesView);
    tabs.addTab("Designation", designationView);
    tabs.addTab("Points", pointView);
    panel.add(tabs);

Also any help with how to only change the background color of the tab to when it is selected would be appreciated.

[JIDE Support]

Could you please give JIDE JideTabbedPaneDemo a try? In that demo, there is a check box named "Bold the selected tab" in the option panel. You would be able to use that check box to bold/unbold selected tab.

Please invoke JideTabbedPane#setBackgroundAt(int, Color) to set the background color of one specific tab.

Thanks,
