Change JTree node icons according to the depth level

I'm looking for changing the different icons of my JTree (Swing)

The java documentation explains how to change icons if a node is a leaf or not, but that's really not what I'm searching.

For me it doesn't matter if a node is a leaf or, I just want to change the icons if the node is in the first/2nd/3rd depth level of the three.

Implement a custom TreeCellRenderer - use a JLabel for the component, and set its icon however you like using the data of the Object stored in the tree. You may need to wrap the object to store its depth, etc. if the object is primitive (String for example)

As an alternative to a custom TreeCellRenderer, you can replace the UI defaults for collapsedIcon and expandedIcon:

Icon expanded = new TreeIcon(true, Color.red);
Icon collapsed = new TreeIcon(false, Color.blue);
UIManager.put("Tree.collapsedIcon", collapsed);
UIManager.put("Tree.expandedIcon", expanded);

TreeIcon is simply an implementation of the Icon interface:

class TreeIcon implements Icon {

    private static final int SIZE = 14;
    private boolean expanded;
    private Color color;

    public TreeIcon(boolean expanded, Color color) {
        this.expanded = expanded;
        this.color = color;
    }

    //@Override
    public void paintIcon(Component c, Graphics g, int x, int y) {
        Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
        g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
            RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
        g2d.setPaint(color);
        if (expanded) {
            g2d.fillOval(x + SIZE / 4, y, SIZE / 2, SIZE);
        } else {
            g2d.fillOval(x, y + SIZE / 4, SIZE, SIZE / 2);
        }
    }

    //@Override
    public int getIconWidth() {
        return SIZE;
    }

    //@Override
    public int getIconHeight() {
        return SIZE;
    }
}
