ComboBox作为JTable的CellRenderer

Question

I want to draw several JTables, each of which has a ComboBox as a cell renderer. Each cell in each table represents a list of data items and I want the list to be displayed each time I click on the ComboBox arrow. My problem is that the ComboBox does not react to mouse clicks, ie the drop-down list does not appear.

How can I activate the drop boxes?

I added below the picture of my GUI and the code.

I am new to java.swing. Any help will be highly appreciated.

// Some code borrowed from how to add checkbox and combobox in table cell?

Be default cells are not editable.

You need to override the isCellEditable(...) method of your custom model to return true to make the cell editable.
