JTabbedPane's tab area add a button, it can di

问题:

I have a JTabbedPane with tabs on the top. To the right of the tabs, I add a button. This button is neither part of JTabbedPane nor is it a tab. Unfortunately, it cannot be clicked. I guess this button is covered by the JTabbedPane, because I moved the button down, it covered by the JTabbedPane.

Can anybody give me some suggestion, so that I can click that button?

This is the layout; I can't upload image, so I draw it like below:

|-------------------------------------|
|   tab   |  tab   |           button |
|-------------------------------------|
|                                     |
|               content               |
|                                     |
|-------------------------------------|

I haven't tried it, but you may be able to leverage one of approaches adduced by @camickr in the article Component Border. A custom TabbedPaneUI is a (laborious) alternative.
