Hi! I’ve managed to add 5 different panels for my JTabbedPane in URCap and the problem is that when I select a pane, it doesn’t get highlighted the panes shift but I’m missing some form of confirmation. I’ve tried to use \*\*UIManager.put(“TabbedPane.selected”, Color.gray); But this only changes the color for all 5 panels to gray. Hope someone can help! //Oliver ---
