Interuption to look and feel

[lukasz.antoniak]

Hi everyone,

I am quite new to JIDE but I found it very usefull and want to use some features in my project.

I am setting Look'n'Feel manager like this:

Code: Select all

javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");

Than I want to use only JideTabbedPane, so I import only com.jidesoft.swing.JideTabbedPane. But when I look at my menu, the look of some buttons has changed. When I add then to my Jmenu like this:

Code: Select all

FileMenu.add(NewFileJMenuItem);

everything is ok. But if I do:

Code: Select all

FileMenu.add(new FileSaveAction());

the look changes. FileSaveAction extends AbstractAction.

In this picture we can see normal "New File" and changed "Save".

How can I prevent JIDE from influencing on my Look'n'Feel?

If you just use JIDE Common Layer, you can call LookAndFeelFactory.setDefaultStyle(LookAndFeelFactory.VSNET_STYLE_WITHOUT_MENU) so that JIDE will not mess up with menu related UIDefaults. Yu will not be able to use JIDE Action Framework if you call it but I guess you are not using it anyway.

Thanks,
