You can enable a client property that
signals the slider to fill this track up to the point of the
current value that the thumb has crossed. The name of this property
is JSlider.isFilled, and a Boolean object represents the current
setting.

JSlider oneJSlider = new JSlider();
oneJSlider.putClientProperty("JSlider.isFilled", Boolean.TRUE);
JSlider anotherJSlider = new JSlider();
// Set to default setting
anotherJSlider.putClientProperty("JSlider.isFilled", Boolean.FALSE);
frame.add(oneJSlider, BorderLayout.NORTH);
frame.add(anotherJSlider, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
frame.setSize(300, 200);
