when dropping some components on design, they are seeded with a label like jbal1, jTextField, etc etc but these are not from bundle file - I realize in code these become names of the new component they are - but since they are also indicating the type of component, could they be from bundle file. the component name can be multibyte since these would be localized, but also, the component programattic name could still be en, but just what is seen in design could be localized. Some are, like list item names seeded into list on design pane. In creator design, these seeded values all come from bundle files.
jTree has words colors, sports, food as seeded in design pane - this not from localized either -- although maybe all these are from jdk swing itself and not part of the jdk that is localized ? ken.frank@sun.com
The text property of buttons, labels, textfields etc. is set to the variable name of the component. This allows the user to identify the components in the designer easily. It doesn't have a sense to localize these text. It doesn't bring any additional value and is confusing instead. It is even not possible becuase the user can install its own components - you cannot have bundle keys for such components and if you had only keys for Swing components from JDK then it would be inconsistent and confusing. > jTree has words colors, sports, food as seeded in design pane - this not > from localized either -- although maybe all these are from jdk swing itself > and not part of the jdk that is localized ? It has been already explained in issue 60408: * the words shown in a JTree are hardcoded in the default constructor of the JTree itself e.g. are hardcoded in the JDK itself. That's not very nice, but we should show these values because they are part of the default state of this component.
