How to change JProgressBar color?

Question

I Used .setBackground and .setForeground and they didn\'t work, the color is like Orange, can\'t change it.

Answer 1

You should set the setStringPainted property to true:

progressBar.setStringPainted(true);
progressBar.setForeground(Color.blue);
progressBar.setString("10%");

Answer 2

I think that these values are right for you

UIManager.put("ProgressBar.background", Color.ORANGE);
UIManager.put("ProgressBar.foreground", Color.BLUE);
UIManager.put("ProgressBar.selectionBackground", Color.RED);
UIManager.put("ProgressBar.selectionForeground", Color.GREEN);
