ColorRenderer JColorComboBox extends the JComboBox and ColorRenderer extends JLabel and implements ListCellRenderer. import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Component; import java.awt.Font; import java.util.Enumeration; import java.util.Hashtable; import javax.swing.*; /** * * @author sharath */ public class JCol...
