Change default row colors in jtable

Question

I'm developing a simple java application using swing. I use JTable element. The problem is that by default rows of tables are white and grey like in this post Setting color in a row of a Jtable . I want to make them the same color, for example all rows white.

Answer 1

You can override the prepareRenderer method of JTable like this

JTable table = new JTable(...)
{
    public Component prepareRenderer(
        TableCellRenderer renderer, int row, int column)
    {
        Component c = super.prepareRenderer(renderer, row, column);
        c.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        return c;
    }
};

Or you could create your own TableCellRenderer which does the same thing (picking the background color to render) but on a Cell level and use that renderer for each of your columns.
