How do I customize the title bar for a window, frame, or dialog?

John Zukowski Starting with the 1.4 release, you can provide your own window adornments or decorations.
import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class AdornSample { public static void main(final String args[]) { Runnable runner = new Runnable() { public void run() { // specify that newly created JFrames should be // decorated by the L and F JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true); JFrame frame = new JFrame("Adornment Example"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setSize(300, 100); frame.setVisible(true); } }; EventQueue.invokeLater(runner); } }You can also use setWindowDecorationStyle() to change the style for different types of windows. To customize what actually is used requires you to modify the look and feel.
