    <p>Yes, this is possible. One of the main pros for using Swing is the ease with which the abstract controls can be created and manipulates.</p> <p>Here is a quick and dirty way to extend the existing JButton class to draw a circle to the right of the text.</p> <pre><code>package test; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Container; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.FlowLayout; import java.awt.Graphics; import javax.swing.JButton; import javax.swing.JFrame; public class MyButton extends JButton { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; private Color circleColor = Color.BLACK; public MyButton(String label) { super(label); } @Override protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) { super.paintComponent(g); Dimension originalSize = super.getPreferredSize(); int gap = (int) (originalSize.height * 0.2); int x = originalSize.width + gap; int y = gap; int diameter = originalSize.height - (gap * 2); g.setColor(circleColor); g.fillOval(x, y, diameter, diameter); } @Override public Dimension getPreferredSize() { Dimension size = super.getPreferredSize(); size.width += size.height; return size; } /*Test the button*/ public static void main(String[] args) { MyButton button = new MyButton("Hello, World!"); JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setSize(400, 400); Container contentPane = frame.getContentPane(); contentPane.setLayout(new FlowLayout()); contentPane.add(button); frame.setVisible(true); } } </code></pre> <p>Note that by overriding <strong>paintComponent</strong> that the contents of the button can be changed, but that the border is painted by the <strong>paintBorder</strong> method. The <strong>getPreferredSize</strong> method also needs to be managed in order to dynamically support changes to the content. Care needs to be taken when measuring font metrics and image dimensions.</p> <p>For creating a control that you can rely on, the above code is not the correct approach. Dimensions and colours are dynamic in Swing and are dependent on the look and feel being used. Even the default <em>Metal</em> look has changed across JRE versions. It would be better to implement <strong>AbstractButton</strong> and conform to the guidelines set out by the Swing API. A good starting point is to look at the <strong>javax.swing.LookAndFeel</strong> and <strong>javax.swing.UIManager</strong> classes.</p> <p><a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/swing/LookAndFeel.html" rel="noreferrer">http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/swing/LookAndFeel.html</a></p> <p><a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/swing/UIManager.html" rel="noreferrer">http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/swing/UIManager.html</a></p> <p>Understanding the anatomy of LookAndFeel is useful for writing controls: <a href="http://wayback.archive.org/web/20090309070901/http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/sce/index.html" rel="noreferrer">Creating a Custom Look and Feel</a></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
