Stop selecting one cell in a table

If you are referring to the focus rectangle that you see around the table cells, then you need to implement a custom cell renderer. The following renderer would print the text returned by toString() method of the object.

public class NoFocusStringCellRenderer extends JLabel

implements TableCellRenderer {

public NoFocusStringCellRenderer() {

super();

setOpaque(true);

}

public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(

JTable table, Object value,

boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus,

int row, int column) {

if(isSelected) {

setBackground(table.getSelectionBackground());

setForeground(table.getSelectionForeground());

}

else {

setForeground(table.getForeground());

setBackground(table.getBackground());

}

setText(value.toString());

return this;

}

}

You would set it as the default renderer for class type String as follows:

table.setDefaultRenderer(String.class, new NoFocusStringCellRenderer());

Hope it helps
