The title bar will be supplied by the operating system, unless you do the following:

JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);

Beyond this, I'm not sure which class controls the painting of the title bar, so I'm not sure how you can change its colour.

UIManager.put("activeCaption", Color.ANY_COLOR_YOU_WANT);but it won't work if using Windows look and feel.

Windows LAF always takes the title bar from the OS. If you want to play with the colors, you don't take the native LAF. If you take the native LAF, you can't play with the colors.
