#3942 — Something cool in Nimbus

  To: comp.lang.java.gui
Nimbus is the new L&F that comes with JDK 1.6.0_10+. the release
candidate is out.

It uses no bit maps. It generates everything using 2D vectors. The
buttons are not as pretty as Metal, however when it does JTables it
alternates the backgrounds with two different colours so it is easier
to follow a line across. 

You can see it at http://mindprod.com/applet/vercheck.html in perhaps
an hour when a big upload completes.
You will have to install JDK 1.0.06_10 first.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jdk.html

 I think I have discovered a bug. This only work when you run as  an
application. As an applet there are no bars, and no lines!

Turns out this is browser specific.  The problem only shows on Opera. 

The new version of Java 1.6.0_10 RC  is very flaky on Opera and IE.
Stuff works about 30% of the time. Lots of rendering errors.
