For my current project, i’m using Swing and the Nimbus look and feel. The look and feel draws focus rects that look great on buttons, text fields and so on. Unfortunately, a focus rect is also drawn on any tab of a TabbedPane.

Thanks in advance,

David

    This seems to be handled by 

    com.sun.java.swing.plaf.nimbus.TabbedPaneTabbedPaneTabPainter

    You might be able to replace the Focused one(s), but I haven’t tried it. Here are the TabbedPane UI defaults, as well as links to some examples.
