Java - setting Fonts/Color in setBorder

Question

Is there a way I can define my own font and color schemes for Text1 AND Text2 text within the setBorder method. New to java and cannot find it in the SUN tutorials.

My code

//Create Positions Table
 JPanel SpreadPanel = new JPanel();
 SpreadPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createTitledBorder(" Text 1    Text 2"));

Regards Simon

Answer 1

setBorder(BorderFactory.createTitledBorder(null, "text", TitledBorder.CENTER, TitledBorder.BOTTOM, new Font("times new roman",Font.PLAIN,12), Color.yellow));

the first parameter null or another border (for compound borders) 2nd param text that you're displaying 3rd and 4th param justification and location of the text from param 2

4th param and 5th param are the two to set font and color

Answer 2

If you want a different font and color for each of the strings (e.g. Text1 and Text2) in the same TitledBorder, you may be need to extend AbstractBorder and override paintBorder(). The existing implementation only has one font and one color for a single title.
