Figure 7-14. Title positioning
Because a TitledBorder contains another Border , you can combine more than one border
to place multiple titles along a single border. For example, Figure 7-15 shows a title along the
top and bottom of the border.
Figure 7-15. Showing multiple titles on a TitledBorder
The program used to generate Figure 7-15 is shown in Listing 7-2.
