  - ### Method Detail

    - #### createUI

          public static ComponentUI createUI(JComponent c)

      Creates a new UI object for the given component.
      Parameters:
        `c` - component to create UI object for
      Returns:
        the UI object

    - #### installUI

          public void installUI(JComponent c)

      Configures the specified component appropriately for the look and feel. This method is invoked when the `ComponentUI` instance is being installed as the UI delegate on the specified component. This method should completely configure the component for the look and feel, including the following:
      1. Install default property values for color, fonts, borders, icons, opacity, etc. on the component. Whenever possible, property values initialized by the client program should not be overridden.
      2. Install a `LayoutManager` on the component if necessary.
      3. Create/add any required sub-components to the component.
      4. Create/install event listeners on the component.
      5. Create/install a `PropertyChangeListener` on the component in order to detect and respond to component property changes appropriately.
      6. Install keyboard UI (mnemonics, traversal, etc.) on the component.
      7. Initialize any appropriate instance data.
      Overridden to ensure that ButtonHandler is created prior to any of the other installXXX methods, since several of them reference buttonHandler.
      Overrides:
        `installUI` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
      Parameters:
        `c` - the component where this UI delegate is being installed
      See Also:
        `ComponentUI.uninstallUI(javax.swing.JComponent)`, `JComponent.setUI(javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI)`, `JComponent.updateUI()`

    - #### installDefaults

          protected void installDefaults()

      Description copied from class: `BasicComboBoxUI`
      Installs the default colors, default font, default renderer, and default editor into the JComboBox.
      Overrides:
        `installDefaults` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`

    - #### installListeners

          protected void installListeners()

      Creates and installs listeners for the combo box and its model. This method is called when the UI is installed.
      Overrides:
        `installListeners` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`

    - #### uninstallUI

          public void uninstallUI(JComponent c)

      Reverses configuration which was done on the specified component during `installUI`. This method is invoked when this `UIComponent` instance is being removed as the UI delegate for the specified component. This method should undo the configuration performed in `installUI`, being careful to leave the `JComponent` instance in a clean state (no extraneous listeners, look-and-feel-specific property objects, etc.). This should include the following:
      1. Remove any UI-set borders from the component.
      2. Remove any UI-set layout managers on the component.
      3. Remove any UI-added sub-components from the component.
      4. Remove any UI-added event/property listeners from the component.
      5. Remove any UI-installed keyboard UI from the component.
      6. Nullify any allocated instance data objects to allow for GC.
      Overrides:
        `uninstallUI` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
      Parameters:
        `c` - the component from which this UI delegate is being removed; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components
      See Also:

    - #### uninstallListeners

    - #### update

          public void update(Graphics g,
                             JComponent c)

      Notifies this UI delegate to repaint the specified component. This method paints the component background, then calls the `paint(SynthContext,Graphics)` method.

      In general, this method does not need to be overridden by subclasses. All Look and Feel rendering code should reside in the `paint` method.

      Overrides:
        `update` in class `ComponentUI`
      Parameters:
        `g` - the `Graphics` object used for painting
        `c` - the component being painted
      See Also:
        `paint(SynthContext,Graphics)`

    - #### paint

          public void paint(Graphics g,
                            JComponent c)

      Paints the specified component according to the Look and Feel.

      This method is not used by Synth Look and Feel. Painting is handled by the `paint(SynthContext,Graphics)` method.

      Overrides:
        `paint` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
      Parameters:
        `g` - the `Graphics` object used for painting
        `c` - the component being painted
      See Also:

                               Graphics g)

      Paints the specified component.
      Parameters:
        `context` - context for the component being painted
        `g` - the `Graphics` object used for painting
      See Also:
        `update(Graphics,JComponent)`

    - #### paintBorder

          public void paintBorder(SynthContext context,
                                  Graphics g,
                                  int x,
                                  int y,

        `g` - `Graphics` to paint on
        `x` - the X coordinate

                                        Rectangle bounds,
                                        boolean hasFocus)

      Paints the currently selected item.
      Overrides:
        `paintCurrentValue` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`

    - #### getDefaultSize

          protected Dimension getDefaultSize()

      Returns the default size of an empty display area of the combo box using the current renderer and font. This method was overridden to use SynthComboBoxRenderer instead of DefaultListCellRenderer as the default renderer when calculating the size of the combo box. This is used in the case of the combo not having any data.
      Overrides:
        `getDefaultSize` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
      Returns:
        the size of an empty display area
      See Also:
        `BasicComboBoxUI.getDisplaySize()`
