Display Japanese characters in TItle Bar Java

Question

I can display Japanese characters everywhere except the title bar of the main window (JFrame) in Java. Is there a way to change the font of this title bar to display Japanese characters? Thanks

I am using Windows XP. If that matters, I also use the Java Substance look.

Answer 1

The window title bar is controlled by the window manager, not Swing. You do not say which OS / GUI you are using.

Windows XP "", " " ""; ( , , , ).

, , , ( , , Katakana):

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;

public class GlyphCheck
{
    public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
        final String title = "Testing: \u30CD";
        SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                JFrame frame = new JFrame(title);
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
                JLabel label = new JLabel(title);
                label.setSize(200, 100);
                frame.setContentPane(label);
                frame.pack();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }
}

Answer 2

JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName());
UIManager.put( "InternalFrame.titleFont", Resources.jaDefault.deriveFont(16.0f) );

Try it ;)

Answer 3

Frame, , . , . , - . . UIManager, .

// Do this before you display any JFrame.
UIManager.put( "Frame.font", new Font( "Japanese", 12, Font.PLAIN ) );
JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated( true );

JFrame frame = new JFrame( title );
