how to make a cell have two colors?

Well my bad,

thought the question was understandable.

I'll rephrase it,

I'm wondering if i could make a cell to have two different background colors, split 50-50, meaning that they're evenly divided.

My table is like an agenda

and i need to know if there are two events falling at the same time.

I hope this is more understandable

This is just an example.

You will need to decide what you want to do when the cell is selected, or you will not see the text clearly when a row is selected.

import java.awt.Color;

import java.awt.Component;

import java.awt.Dimension;

import java.awt.Graphics;

import javax.swing.JComponent;

import javax.swing.JDialog;

import javax.swing.JFrame;

import javax.swing.JScrollPane;

import javax.swing.JTable;

import javax.swing.UIManager;

import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableCellRenderer;

import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;

public class TwoColorsTableCellTest {

public static void main(String[] args) {

try {

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());

JFrame frame = new JFrame();

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(new String[][] {{"1", "2"}, {"3", "4"}}, new String[]{"col1", "col2"});

JTable table = new JTable(model);

table.setPreferredScrollableViewportSize(new Dimension(300, 300));

table.setDefaultRenderer(Object.class, new TwoColorsTableCellRendrer(Color.YELLOW, Color.BLUE));

JScrollPane pane = new JScrollPane(table);

frame.getContentPane().add(pane);

frame.pack();

frame.setVisible(true);

} catch (Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();}

}

private static class TwoColorsTableCellRendrer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {

Color color1, color2;

public TwoColorsTableCellRendrer(Color c1, Color c2) {

color1 = c1;

color2 = c2;

setOpaque(false);

}

public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {

JComponent comp = (JComponent) super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);

return comp;

}

protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {

g.setColor(color1);

g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth()/2, getHeight());

g.setColor(color2);

g.fillRect(getWidth()/2, 0, getWidth()/2+1, getHeight());

super.paintComponent(g);

}

}

}
