Adding transparent JSlider

[Addez]

Hi!
I added a JSlider to a jpanel that already got an image as background.
Now the JSlider fills in it's area in the screen with ugly beige color. I want it to be transparent so that only the slider is visible with it's sticks and parts.

Using button I could assign setContentAreaFilled(false);
Now I cant, so any idea how to fix that?

A JSlider inherits the setOpague(boolean b) method; you can also specify if the ticks should be painted or other parts of the slider.
