  • is 'Sub Menu' not right aligned now? You should experiment with different menu items of different lengths. At the moment the menu is as wide as the text – RNJ Oct 30 '12 at 14:27

  • @Gagandeep Bali do you think works with RTL Orientations – mKorbel Oct 30 '12 at 15:52
  • Yeah I guess dude, though, hadn't used JMenu that much. + up voted the question from my side, when I wrote my first comment, for more attention. – nIcE cOw Oct 30 '12 at 16:18

    JMenuItem item1 = new JMenuItem("Item 1");
    JMenuItem item2 = new JMenuItem("Item ________ 2");
    JMenuItem item3 = new JMenuItem("Item 3");

    item1.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT);
    item3.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.CENTER);

It works for me. The problem might be in length of items - they are the same thus right alignment is not visible.
