I'm doing some experiments with Substance LAF and I'm trying to remove padding between tabs. With default ui I used:
UIManager.getDefaults().put("TabbedPane.contentBorderInsets", new Insets(0,0,0,0));
UIManager.getDefaults().put("TabbedPane.tabsOverlapBorder", true);
,but that doesn't work with Substance , it seem to provide it's own values. How to achieve same effect with Substance.
this value isn't possible to override by using UIManager for JTabbedPane,
this is quite common issue that most of methods are protected (doesn't matter if they are published as keys in UIManager) without overriding own BasicTabbedPaneUI
javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=4,left=4,bottom=4,right=4]
false
java.awt.Insets[top=4,left=2,bottom=3,right=3]
false
null

javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=2,left=2,bottom=3,right=3]
true
Instets(0,0,0,0) or InsetsUIResource(0,0,0,0)modified code originnaly made by Kirill

Thanks to the info put by @mKorbel I fount that I can achieve same efect by using
setting SubstanceLookAndFeel.TABBED_PANE_CONTENT_BORDER_KIND to SubstanceConstants.TabContentPaneBorderKind.SINGLE_PLACEMENT
