set items color in JCombo box
[236 byte] By [mcstevenjpa] at [2007-11-27 5:40:15] 
Hi, I would like to custom the items color (background/ foreground) in a combo box. How can I do ? I think I have to write a self render component right? But could some of you give me some examples? Thanks for help.

JComboBox uses ListCellRenderer, so you can either implement this interface or extend the javax.swing.DefaultListCellRenderer class, second option will be easier.
Also visit http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/GUI/jlist/index.html I think going thru this will solve your problem.
