Netbeans JTree Linestyle

Question

I'm having difficulties removing the "lineStyle" lines in JTrees using Netbeans. In a standalone program, I'm able to do this:

    JTree myJTree = new JTree();
    myJTree.putClientProperty("JTree.lineStyle", "None");

    JScrollPanel myScrollPanel = new JScrollPanel();
    myScrollPanel.setViewportView(myJTree);

But when I try adding that code into my Netbeans created GUI, I get what appears to be a "Windows Default" linestyle. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Answer 1

NetBeans sets it own system-wide UI.

You can fix this by overriding setUI or updateUI methods on your JTree, where in addition to calling super implementation method you would do your client property setting.
