Enable antialias when drawing rounded shapes
I recommend you to enable antialias when drawing non-square shapes to make them smooth and pretty. For example in your JBootstrapButtonUI class:
@Override
public void paint ( Graphics g, JComponent c )
{
// Enabling antialias
final Graphics2D g2d = ( Graphics2D ) g;
final RenderingHints.Key key = RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING;
final Object oldAAhint = g2d.getRenderingHint ( key );
g2d.setRenderingHint ( key, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON );
// ... painting code ...
// Restoring previous antialias settings
g2d.setRenderingHint ( key, oldAAhint );
}
And don't worry, Graphics can be casted to Graphics2D without any issues as it is always passed into paint methods, unless you switch graphics debug on (I doubt you will, because it is a really outdated feature).
You can also look into features provided by Graphics2D class - there are lots of them.
