I have changed the colour of a JComboBox like this:
    combo.setForeground(Color.white);
    combo.setBackground(Color.blue);

It looks nice, but when I click it and the drop-down list appears,
the selection list is all still black on grey.

Does anyone know how to make the drop-down part coloured as well?

Steve.
