nimbus

I am missing the blue horizontal divider between the tabs and the content in a Nimbus L&F TabbedPane set to SCROLL (other L&Fs (default & windows) provide those). As you can see the problem is limited to new JTabbedPane(JTabbedPane.TOP, JTabbedPane.SCROLL_TAB_LAYOUT) (top of the picture) while the default with WRAP does not show this behaviour (bottom of the picture). It should be possible to change something like this by overriding parts of the NimbusDefaults.class . Here is an excerpt: //Initialize TabbedPane d.put("TabbedPane.contentMargins", new InsetsUIResource(0, 0, 0, 0)); d.put(

I have a simple-ish cell renderer which is composed of a few JLabel s (the renderer itself extends JPanel ) and I'm trying to get it to render sensibly in the Nimbus look and feel. Basically what is happening is that in the lighter rows (as Nimbus has alternate row coloring ), my specific cell renderer is using the table background color (which is much darker than both lighter and the darker row colors). In my renderer I do: if (isSelected) { setBackground(table.getSelectionBackground); } else { setBackground(table.getBackground); } If I comment this whole block of code out then then all my

I am using JProgressBar component along with the Nimbus UI Defaults. The problem is that When I want to manually change each progressbar's Bar color, I use BasicProgressBarUI by setting JProgressBar.setUI() function. This makes more trouble because I would like to just change the bar color and it seems that I loose the default look of the jprogressbar (Border, backgroundcolor dissappears). So I can set UIDefaults of Nimbus ProgressBar when the code initializes. It works. But I want to change each progressbar's bar color dynamically. Is there any other way of changing Bar color of JProgressBar

I have been working to transition a Java application from WindowsLookAndFeel to Nimbus, largely successfully, despite Nimbus foibles. My users overall like the Nimbus LaF but didn't like some details, some of which I changed by consulting previous questions on this site. Example: I copied the LeafIcon, ClosedIcon and OpenIcon from Windows LaF (which they liked) and use them in the Nimbus version, for a nice combination of LaFs. Stuck on one last (?) problem. I have a JTree with a subclassed DefaultCellRenderer to create the appropriate node displays. This works fine under WindowsLookAndFeel.

I'm trying to use Nimbus Look and Feel and I can't simply plug it in to replace other Look and feel because it adds some external padding around each component. So, I would like to remove this padding. This is the list of defaults that can be changed, however the following code changes nothing. UIManager.put("Button.contentMargins", new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0)); Other values are working as expected. How can I remove this padding? EDIT I believe content margins is referring to the internal padding. EDIT Looking at the source code the external padding seems to be hard-coded. I believe it's added to

The windows look and feel layout on JFileChooser is much better than other look and feels like nimbus. So I'm looking for a way to have the layout of a system look and feel but have nimbus or others theme on top. Is this possible? If so how can it be done? It's possible, though I don't know whether it's recommended. I managed to get it to work by asking the view to update itself on all but the topmost JFileChooser component (since that would replace all the chooser components with the Nimbus ones which you don't want). I'd regard this as a hack that may or may not work depending on the
