NB3.6 RC1 and maybe earlier. All unixes, all jdks
==================================================

I'm giving it as low priority cause I'm afraid
it's not common user scenario and if yes, the KDE
window manager (don't know if it is possible in
Gnome) is not supported WM :-( But for me, it's
pretty anoying, grr... :-(

Definitely it was OK in the earliers' NB36 dev
build. You could check it at

example of unredable panel I'm going to attach
(you could see it in TS for NB36 too at:

Problem is that there must be hardcoded color of
widgets like button BACK, NEXT... and also of
JFILECHOOSERS where the navigation is totaly
unredable (see attachment). That means that my KDE
 color theme is aplied just "halfly" and the rest
Installer handles it itself.

There are to possible solution:
1) the easier one:
   Let's all aplication protect against KDE 
   forcing its colors
2) Let the KDE force its colors and fonts 
   completly at all part of the application.
