SwingX JXTable Boolean column have different color on highlight

Question

I have a little problem with SwingX Components.

In my Application I’m using a JXTable and on the table I register a MouseOver ColorHighlighter. The model of the table defines two columns; a String column and a Boolean column. The default renderers of a Boolean column in a JXTable are CheckBoxes. Now the Problem is when the Mouse moves over the rows the ColorHighlighter highlights the columns in different colors; the Boolean column is darker then the String column. In the Example you can see the behavior.

I want that all columns were highlighted in the same color.

Have anyone an idea to solve the problem?

import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Color;

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;

import org.jdesktop.swingx.JXTable;
import org.jdesktop.swingx.decorator.ColorHighlighter;
import org.jdesktop.swingx.decorator.HighlightPredicate;


public class BooleanHighlighterDemo
{
  public static void main( String args[] )
  {
    JFrame frame = new JFrame( "Boolean Highlighter" );
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );

    JXTable table = new JXTable( new BooleanTableModel() );

    //Add ColorHighlighter
    table.addHighlighter( new ColorHighlighter( HighlightPredicate.ROLLOVER_ROW,
        new Color( 0x330000ff, true ), Color.BLACK ) );

    frame.add( new JScrollPane( table ), BorderLayout.CENTER );
    frame.setSize( 400, 150 );
    frame.setVisible( true );
  }
}

class BooleanTableModel extends DefaultTableModel
{
  public BooleanTableModel()
  {
    super( new Object[][]{ { "1", Boolean.TRUE }, { "2", Boolean.TRUE }, { "3", Boolean.FALSE },
        { "4", Boolean.TRUE }, { "5", Boolean.FALSE } }, new String[]{ "Number", "Boolean" } );
  }

  @Override
  public Class<?> getColumnClass( int columnIndex )
  {
    switch ( columnIndex )
    {
      case 0:
        return String.class;

      case 1:
        return Boolean.class;

      default :
        return Object.class;
    }
  }
}

I ran your example and I get the same color for both columns. — jzd, Mar 16 '11 at 11:35
After your Comment I checked the latest version of swingX 1.6.2 out and in this version both columns have the same color. It seems that the Bug is already fixed. Thank you ! — Seffel, Mar 16 '11 at 14:08
I should have mentioned I used 1.6.2, I will create an answer that specifies this. — jzd, Mar 16 '11 at 14:13

Run the program in the latest version (SwingX 1.6.2). And you should see the same color for both columns.

If you remove the alpha, the highlight color is the same for both columns.
