Description LiborJelinek 2011-12-01 20:11:16 UTC 
Created attachment 113726 [details]
Example font color of native/other Swing apps vs. NB IDE

To get the most native look I added

--laf com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel

in netbeans_default_options in etc/netbeans.conf file. Obtained LAF is nearly perfect but bad color of font used in menubar.

In native GTK+ apps and other Swing apps it's black, NB IDE uses white. Please have a look on attachment.

I am so sorry. Not only NB IDE but every Swing app including SwingSet2 with GTK+ LAF use bad menu font color...

file a JDK bug please and post the bug link here, thanks
Comment 5 LiborJelinek 2011-12-05 10:43:07 UTC 
I'm always unsure where... To Oracle/Sun's bug parade or to OpenJDK?

Alternatively maybe I also should file a bug on Xubuntu issuezilla Launchpad...
