I'm using JXTreeTable to display some data and I want to use the provided mechanisms of SwingX to change the renderer for some columns.
I previously used a JXTable and custom implementations of TableCellRenderer but this doesn't work anymore (I see strings where I should have progress bars, buttons,...).
I thus tried to achieve what I want by doing:
examsTable.getColumn(6).setCellRenderer(new DefaultTableRenderer(new ButtonProvider()));
But the overriden method createRenderer of ComponentProvider is called once (even when I have more than one line in my JXTreeTable) and no button is shown (the method only contains return new JButton();).
Thanks!
Edit> Hoped you would answer kleopatra and thus happy you did.
I did my best but somehow the table is not displayed. I guess I forgot something (I'm a C++ developer new to Java) but I guess it's not a serious problem and it's probably not related to my main problem.

EDIT> I actually have observed that it works. But not the way I want. I want to see a real button (now it looks just a little bit different from the rest of the line), know the path to it (parent object and column index) and see effects when clicking or hovering on it (button should look pressed,...).
How do I achieve that?
The button is used, it only appears not to be in some LAFs:-)
Technically, the reasons are
In combination the button doesn't look like a button for Metal (while it is unchanged f.i. in Windows)
No satisfying solution, options are
