How to set color of text font in JTree

How to set color of text font in JTree

I can't seem to find anything on how to set the background color of the text
in JTree.

Help???

private JTree getJTree() {

if (jTree == null) {

jTree = new JTree();

jTree.setBackground(new java.awt.Color(204,204,204));

jTree.setFont(new java.awt.Font("Arial", java.awt.Font.PLAIN, 12));

jTree.setForeground(java.awt.Color.lightGray);

}

return jTree;

That is controlled by the cell renderer. Try this:

tree.setCellRenderer(
new DefaultTreeCellRenderer() {
public Color getTextNonSelectionColor() {
return Color.lightGray; } });

Re: How to set color of text font in JTree

If you are using DefaultMutableTreeNode objects, you might also consider
using HTML to set text colours, e.g.:

result.add(new DefaultMutableTreeNode("<html><font color=\"blue\"><u>Cached
page (" + e.getCachedSize() + ")</u></font></html>"));

or add clickable hyperlinks:

result.add(new DefaultMutableTreeNode("<html><a href=" + e.getURL() + ">" +
e.getURL() + "</a></html>"));

Dave.
