如何更改Java中无法编辑的JTextPane的背景颜色？

Question

I have a JTextPane that has pane.setEditable(false) which forces it to have a 'greyed-out' background color.

After trying setBackground(Color.WHITE) (which doesn't work), I tried looking around the net for an answer but not managed to find one yet.

Can anyone help me on this one please?

Note that for some Look and Feel like Nimbus that don't respect background property, you can use this code :

private static class Painter extends javax.swing.plaf.nimbus.AbstractRegionPainter {
    private final Color color;

    private Painter(Color color) {
        this.color = color;
    }
    @Override
    protected AbstractRegionPainter.PaintContext getPaintContext() {
        return new AbstractRegionPainter.PaintContext(null, null, false);
    }

    @Override
    protected void doPaint(Graphics2D g, JComponent c, 
            int width, int height, Object[] extendedCacheKeys) {
        g.setColor(c.isEnabled() ? c.getBackground() : color);
        g.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
    }
}

This defines a new custom painter for the background. For Nimbus, apply it to your JTextPane jtp this way:

        UIDefaults defaults = UIManager.getLookAndFeelDefaults();
        Painter painter = new Painter(color);
        String key = "TextPane[Disabled].backgroundPainter";
        defaults.put(key, painter);
        jtp.putClientProperty("Nimbus.Overrides", defaults);
        jtp.putClientProperty("Nimbus.Overrides.InheritDefaults", false);

Actually try this one:

UIManager.put("TextPane.disabledBackground", Color.WHITE);

I think it should be TextPane.disabledBackground , if not try : TextPane.inactiveBackground

To change text back ground color I believe: Try setDisabledTextColor on the pane.

I found out what it was - it was because I had pane.setOpaque(false) , I couldn't change the background color without first either removing this or changing it to true.

setBackground(Color.white) worked after altering this.
