I would like to get the effect like if JTabbedPane would be turned 90 degrees counterclockwise (only tabs but not the content inside tabs). What is the best way to implement that in Java?

The text was painted vertically and tried as an icon on the tab. This way you don’t have to modify JTabbedPane you just use a custom Icon in the tab.
Of course you would also have to specify the tab placement to be on the Left.
