How to make individual tabs on a JTabbedPane, a different colour?

Hi,
Is there a way to set the background colour to INDIVIDUAL tabs on a tabbed pane so that I can have a nice range of colours across my tabs?
DLawton.

hey D,
I've got two ideas for you:
1. Swing has implementable L&F (skins) for all components. You could create one for you JTabbedPane as a subclass from some existing UI L&F
2. you can always do this in your paint method. Might be tough though

    How to make my tab page shows all my applications?Please help me as fast as possible. Thx .
    Note: Please write as detail as possible because I am new to vb.Thx again.

    Hi,
     For a lack of info about what Applications you are talking about we can only guess at what you want to do. In my experience, this is the kind of question that ends up being a mile long with 15 different examples because nobody knows exactly what you
    are trying to do.
     With that said, maybe you can put a ListView in your TabPage and use the code i showed in the link below. If not then please explain exactly what you want to do.  8)

    Cannot recall the full line-up of Effects in Pr 6.5, but you should have the fixed Effect>Motion>Scale, which will allow you to resize the Clip. You might need to use Motion>Position in addition. Basically, you will doing a PiP (Picture in Picture), with no Clip below, just the black showing.

  • Can't figure out how to make "sub-tabs" / Too many "top-tabs" / Other ?

    First of all, the website that I am webmaster for is: www.cindydennis.org .
    I am having some problems:
    1) There are TOO MANY tabs at the top. I can't figure out how to make sub-headings on one page...
    For example, I'd like on the "About CDM" page, tabs that can be clicked on to go to other information tabs, but that don't end up appearing on the top (e.g.: having "Remarks" and "What We Believe" tabs go there, but not appear at the top).
    Another example, if you look at the home screen, I'd like to have the link to the "Privacy Policy" and Terms of Service" pages on the bottom, but not have them appear as tabs in the top, too.
    How do I do this, please? I've searched, and can't figure out/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
    2) How do I add "Copyright 2011" automatically? I saw in the Rapidweaver trial version, it automatically adds it when you publish... is there a way to tell this program to do this? Or do I need to type that in on each page? (I don't want to purchase RW... I'm not ready for that yet.)
    Thank you in advance
    Cindee

    Cindee ~ One way to do the copyright notice is to use a Text Clipping — Select (highlight) the copyright text you want to use and drag it to the Desktop. If necessary, change the name of the Clipping icon so that it's more easily identifiable on the Desktop. Then, when you need it in iWeb, simply drag the Clipping icon from the Desktop to iWeb's main canvas.
    By the way, rather than posting your URL here like this:
    www.cindydennis.org
    ...include the prefix to make it conveniently clickable:
    http://www.cindydennis.org

  • How to make a tabbed panel in fireworks for a web page?

    I know fireworks is not the best place to make a web page. I have to use this because it is a mockup for school. i have the tabs up and each state made in each tab i have the appropriate tab merging with the content area. I also have 3 other states I have created for each tab. first problem i am having is that when I click on state 2,3 and 4 I my content disappears including my master page and all of my other content I don't know how to make it show like it does in state 1. my second problem is I don't want to slice the hotspots to make the tabs. I just want to make the hotspots navigate to each state is that at all possible? or do I just have to slice it? the reason I don't want to slice is because the instructor does not like it when we slice content don't ask me why.

    Searched for a solution and I found a video tutorial about this:

  • How to make a tabbed web browser in vb 2013

    How do I make a tabbed web browser in vb 2013? Like google chrome, or bing.

    Hi ChairmanZeddy,
    You could use
    TabControl control to contain web browser. Then add tabPages when you need new page.
    You could add or remove the page like below, I handle the add or remove in two buttons. Here is the code.
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    Dim newPage As New TabPage()
    newPage.Text = "New Tab"
    TabControl1.TabPages.Add(newPage)
    Dim webbrowswer As New WebBrowser()
    webbrowswer.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
    newPage.Controls.Add(webbrowswer)
    TabControl1.SelectedTab = newPage
    End Sub
    Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
    If TabControl1.SelectedTab IsNot Nothing Then
    TabControl1.TabPages.Remove(TabControl1.SelectedTab)
    End If
    End Sub
    Result:
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

    Hi
    Are you referring to the tabs in a JTabbedPane? If so, you might first remove the tab and then insert it at the desired index.
    add(component, index)
    add(component, constraints, index)
    insertTab(title,icon,component,tip,index)
    Hope this helps

  • How to Hide a Tab in a jTabbedPane

    Hello, I am trying to toggle the Visibility of a tab in a jTabbedPane... I have tried every permutation of these that I could think of:
    myTab1.Visible(False);
    myTab1.Hide();
    myTab1.updateUI();
    myTabControl.doLayout();
    myTabControl.updateUI();
    myTabControl.repaint();
    myTabControl.Layout();What am i missing?
    Please help.

    Its not complicated
    Object myTabls[]=new Object[tabbedPane.getTabCount()];
    this will create an array.
    now
    for (int a=0;a<tabbedPane.getTabCount();a++)
    myTabs[a]=tabbedPane.getComponentAt(a);
    with an array of Components and their placement (index)
    you can do what you want.
    I think Java Merlin (1.4) has a setVisible for a tab, and my guess is that they have implemented that this way.
    You can do it either way.

  • Forms 6.0-- How can I show records in a block in different colours.

    In a multi record block, how can I show few records in one colour and few more in a different colour depending on a condition.

    Use DISPLAY_ITEM.
    This will change the visual attribute of the item in the current(!) record,
    set_item_property changes the attributes of the item in all(!) records.

  • How to change the tab of a jTabbedPane when action performed

    The scenario is like this : I have a jTabbedPane with 2 tabs. I want, when an action is performed in one tab (for example a button is clicked on tab1) to change the tab automatically (to make tab2 visible). How can i do this?
    Thank you in advance

    I've read JTabbedPane API before i post the message, but unfortunately i couldn't find a solution to my problem. I tried to use the methods grabFocus and requestFocus to change the focus of the application, but it didn't work.

  • How to make spry tab open or scroll horizontally.

    I saw a bunch of spay panels that scrolls horizontally. But
    dont know how this is achieved.
    There is a slide effect in Dreamweaver Behavior panel but it
    only goes up and down or vertically.
    I'm trying to create a bunch of Spry Tab panels, basically I
    hide the tabs using CSS display none property, then I add a "next"
    and Prev button, this allows the user to browse the panels without
    the tabs.
    The problem is, I need the spray content area to open or
    scroll horizontally instead of vertically or up and down.
    Any ideas? Thanks

    Sounds like you really should be using the Spry Sliding
    panels:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/slidingpanels/SlidingPanelsSample.html
    You can make them go vertical, horizontal, or even a
    combination. This widget isn't built into Dreamweaver, so you'll
    need to add the appropriate markup manually. FOr more info check
    out the Spry API docs:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/data_api/index.html
    Select Sliding panels on the left, and then start off with
    Overview.
