I would like to use an image as a button in Java, and I tried to do this:
BufferedImage buttonIcon = ImageIO.read(new File("buttonIconPath"));
button = new JButton(new ImageIcon(buttonIcon));
But this still shows the actual button behind the image, I would only like the image to function as the button, how can I do this?
Remove the border like so:
button.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder());
and then also the contents1:
button.setContentAreaFilled(false);
