Dev build from May 11th Mustang build 84 Windows XP The license dialog that shows up during the start up with fresh user dir has dark background in the license text. This background was white before and I think it should be white. I will attach screenshot.
Created attachment 30362 [details] Screenshot showing dark background of license text.
Passing to Marek. Certainly something has changed again on JDK side, it's starting to be crazy. Btw, use Help/About/Copy Info for printing build information, it is much less work and will give us more info.
I think this is the change in JDK 6.0 (b84) ... Dafe knows more...
Ups, I haven't read all comments, passing back to Marek
Here is the comment from the mail we got from JDK team : --------------- As of Mustang b84, two changes went back that affect NetBeans. The first is minor, and results in the background color being changed to gray for non-editable text areas/panes. This affects the output Window of NetBeans which was white, but is now gray. We're working on reversing this issue now, but it won't be complete by JavaOne. ---------------
Thanks Marian for explanation. Marek I guess you'll need to find the color somewhere else, perhaps List.background or Tree.background from Swing's UIManager with fall back to white.
If I understand correctly they will reverse change and in such case there is no need for any change on our side. I just wait and close this issue as it gets fixed in JDK. Or am I missing anything?
It's known regression in JDK 6.0 (b84), already filed : http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6420149 I think nothing to do on our side ... wontfix.
