JTabbedPane Transparency

How do you set the actual content pane's background to be Opaque, the panels that I add to it I have already set Opaque but the tabbedpane main area keeps showing up as blue even when I do

JTabbedPane tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane();
tabbedPane.setOpaque(false);
Solution

  • If you add

    UIManager.put("TabbedPane.contentOpaque", false);
JTabbedPane tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane();

    Then this solves the opacity problem.
