- ## Constructor Details

  - ### SynthComboBoxUI

    public SynthComboBoxUI()
    Constructs a `SynthComboBoxUI`.

- ## Method Details

  - ### 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 `ComponentUI`
    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()`

  - ### getContext

    public SynthContext getContext(JComponent c)
    Returns the Context for the specified component.
    Specified by:
      `getContext` in interface `SynthUI`
    Parameters:
      `c` - Component requesting SynthContext.
    Returns:
      SynthContext describing component.

  - ### propertyChange

    public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e)
    This method gets called when a bound property is changed.
    Specified by:
      `propertyChange` in interface `PropertyChangeListener`
    Parameters:
      `e` - A PropertyChangeEvent object describing the event source and the property that has changed.

  - ### 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)`

  - ### getMinimumSize

    public Dimension getMinimumSize(JComponent c)
    The minimum size is the size of the display area plus insets plus the button.
    Overrides:
      `getMinimumSize` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
    Parameters:
      `c` - the component whose minimum size is being queried; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components
    Returns:
      a `Dimension` object or `null`
    See Also:
      - `JComponent.getMinimumSize()`
      - `LayoutManager.minimumLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)`
      - `ComponentUI.getPreferredSize(javax.swing.JComponent)`

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

  - ### paint

    protected void paint(SynthContext context, 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, int w, int h)
    Paints the border.
    Specified by:
      `paintBorder` in interface `SynthUI`
    Parameters:
      `context` - a component context
      `g` - `Graphics` to paint on
      `x` - the X coordinate
      `y` - the Y coordinate
      `w` - width of the border
      `h` - height of the border

  - ### paintCurrentValue

    public void paintCurrentValue(Graphics g, Rectangle bounds, boolean hasFocus)
    Paints the currently selected item.
    Overrides:
      `paintCurrentValue` in class `BasicComboBoxUI`
    Parameters:
      `g` - an instance of `Graphics`
      `bounds` - a bounding rectangle to render to
      `hasFocus` - is focused

  - ### 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()`
