window background color?

How do I set the background color for a window?

If your window is a JFrame, JDialog or JWindow you can try

Code:

---

myFrame.getContentPane().setBackground(yourColor)

---

If it is a Frame of Window you can try

Code:

---

myRef.setBackground(color)

---

JOptionPanes take a little more work.

Little explanation on this.

You can do this in this way as well.

Code:

---

myFrame.setBackground(yourColor)

In this way, when you run the application, background color flashes and gone. That is because the frame made up of mane components involving. That's why we used a "Content Pane" in the hardwired code.

thank you.
