JProgressbar with 2 or more different colors at one instance

Question

I wanted to create a jprogressbar that has a specific color on a specific range (eg. 50% green, 50% red). Is there a way to do that? What i currently have is a progressbar that changes the color of the whole bar. By the way i am not using any look and feels for this one. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Extend BasicProgressBarUI and override the the desired paint() delegate, as shown in this related example that overrides paintIndeterminate().
