JButton with a round image

[Alexandre Baldo]

Hello guys!
I'll try to explain the problem...
I have a JButton:

JButton addButton = new JButton(new ImageIcon(..));

The ImageIcon is a GIF. A round GIF.
The problema is that when the button is displayed the addButton's border appears as well (there's a rect surrounding it)... I want just the Image to be shown!

Does anyone knows how can I do that?

Thank's!!

Try addButton.setBorderPainted(false)

On XP LAF setBorderPainted(false) might not be sufficient. You might have to use addButton.setBorder(null)

Worth doing a search of this forum; questions about round buttons come up about twice a year. If you find anything useful, be sure to post a link to it with the URL button below.
