如何在JButton边框内适应ImageIcon

Question

I want to color some JButtons, some other questions here showed me, that it would be easier to paint a little image (did it with gimp) and set it as icon for the JButton.

The number and size of the buttons should be variable (they're in a grid), so I want a high res image that I can scale how i need it.

The problem now is, I don't know how to 'cut the edges' of the icon, because the buttons have rounded edges.

Here you can see that the image is not inside of the button border.

And here is my method in the class that extends JButton.

public void setYellow() {
    URL u = getClass().getResource("/img/yellow.png");
    ImageIcon i = new javax.swing.ImageIcon(u);
    //Image img = i.getImage();
    //img = img.getScaledInstance(size, size, java.awt.Image.SCALE_SMOOTH); 
    //i = new ImageIcon(img);
    setIcon(i);
}

    mb.setYellow();
}
}

EDIT 2

Here are the pictures where the lines in setYellow()

setBorderPainted(false);
setContentAreaFilled(false);

are not commented out (unfortunately there is no difference)

Before button is clicked:

After button is clicked:

UPDATE

I added Borders to the MyButton constructor

setBorder(LineBorder.createGrayLineBorder());

and now the icons are inside the button borders. I added pictures.

But as you can see, we don't have these rounded button edges anymore.

Answer 1

button.setBorderPainted(false);
button.setContentAreaFilled(false);

As seen in this answer .

Update

I do not quite get what you are trying to achieve if not this.

I made the rollover icon to be orange so that we could easily see the size of one button, but otherwise I put 4 in a row to ensure the minimum frame width did not insert extra space between the buttons in a row.
