Hey all.. Hope someone can give me a quick hand here... I have a JButton that I would like to clip down to a rectangle... I set the icon of the button to a elliptical image. I took off all borders, so right now it just looks like an elliptical button. What I want to do is chop off the two ends and keep the middle, so it'll look like a rectangle. I tried to use the setBounds property, but that doesn't seem to want to work. Any easy way to do this? Thanks...

Doug
