don't recreate an Icon
inside Renderer
, prepare that before, otherwise you'll recreating Icon
in the crazy periods
not to add Icon
to the Component / JComponent / JLabel
returns Renderer
put to the Renderer
code made by Darryl or Rob
protected Icon getIcon(JTable table, int column) {
SortKey sortKey = getSortKey(table, column);
if (sortKey != null && table.convertColumnIndexToView(
sortKey.getColumn()) == column) {
switch (sortKey.getSortOrder()) {
case ASCENDING:
return UIManager.getIcon("Table.ascendingSortIcon");
case DESCENDING:
return UIManager.getIcon("Table.descendingSortIcon");
}
}
return null;
}
EDIT
thank to Renderer by @trashgod, UNSORTED isn't required to override for Renderer, try & enjoy
initial view
ASCENDING
DESCENDING
