          public MetalSeparatorUI()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### createUI

          public static ComponentUI createUI(JComponent c)

    - #### installDefaults

          protected void installDefaults(JSeparator s)

      Overrides:
        `installDefaults` in class `BasicSeparatorUI`

    - #### paint

          public void paint(Graphics g,
                            JComponent c)

      Description copied from class: `ComponentUI`
      Paints the specified component appropriately for the look and feel. This method is invoked from the `ComponentUI.update` method when the specified component is being painted. Subclasses should override this method and use the specified `Graphics` object to render the content of the component.
      Overrides:
        `paint` in class `BasicSeparatorUI`
      Parameters:
        `g` - the `Graphics` context in which to paint
        `c` - the component being painted; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components
      See Also:
        `ComponentUI.update(java.awt.Graphics, javax.swing.JComponent)`

    - #### getPreferredSize

          public Dimension getPreferredSize(JComponent c)

      Description copied from class: `ComponentUI`
      Returns the specified component's preferred size appropriate for the look and feel. If `null` is returned, the preferred size will be calculated by the component's layout manager instead (this is the preferred approach for any component with a specific layout manager installed). The default implementation of this method returns `null`.
      Overrides:
        `getPreferredSize` in class `BasicSeparatorUI`
      Parameters:
        `c` - the component whose preferred size is being queried; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components
      See Also:
        `JComponent.getPreferredSize()`, `LayoutManager.preferredLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)`
