Question

I’m trying to put a 1px border around a GaugeField to make it stand out. I’m using the code below, but it isn’t having any effect.

SetBorder is in the api of GaugeField, but I’m not doing something right. Ideas?

    progressBar = new GaugeField(null,0,100,0,GaugeField.PERCENT);
    progressBar.setBorder(BorderFactory.createSimpleBorder(
            new XYEdges(1,1,1,1), 
            new XYEdges(0,0,0,0),
            Border.STYLE_FILLED));

Answer 1

It will have affect if you change from Border.STYLE_FILLED to Border.STYLE_SOLID.

The doc for BorderFactory.createSimpleBorder(XYEdges edges, XYEdges colors, int style) says:

style - STYLE_TRANSPARENT, STYLE_SOLID, SYLE_DOTTED, STYLE_DASHED.

Note there’s no Border.STYLE_FILLED in that list.
