public class MetalLookAndFeel
extends BasicLookAndFeel

Implements The Metal Look and Feel.

For the keyboard keys defined for each component in this Look and Feel (L&F), see Component Keystroke Actions for the Metal L&F.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.

Constructor Detail

MetalLookAndFeel

public MetalLookAndFeel()
Method Detail

getName

public String getName()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
Return a short string that identifies this look and feel, e.g. "CDE/Motif". This string should be appropriate for a menu item. Distinct look and feels should have different names, e.g. a subclass of MotifLookAndFeel that changes the way a few components are rendered should be called "CDE/Motif My Way"; something that would be useful to a user trying to select a L&F from a list of names.
Overrides:
getName in class LookAndFeel

getID

public String getID()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
Return a string that identifies this look and feel. This string will be used by applications/services that want to recognize well known look and feel implementations. Presently the well known names are "Motif", "Windows", "Mac", "Metal". Note that a LookAndFeel derived from a well known superclass that doesn't make any fundamental changes to the look or feel shouldn't override this method.
Overrides:
getID in class LookAndFeel

getDescription

public String getDescription()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
Return a one line description of this look and feel implementation, e.g. "The CDE/Motif Look and Feel". This string is intended for the user, e.g. in the title of a window or in a ToolTip message.
Overrides:
getDescription in class LookAndFeel

isNativeLookAndFeel

public boolean isNativeLookAndFeel()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
If the underlying platform has a "native" look and feel, and this is an implementation of it, return true. For example a CDE/Motif look and implementation would return true when the underlying platform was Solaris.
Overrides:
isNativeLookAndFeel in class LookAndFeel

isSupportedLookAndFeel

public boolean isSupportedLookAndFeel()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
Return true if the underlying platform supports and or permits this look and feel. This method returns false if the look and feel depends on special resources or legal agreements that aren't defined for the current platform.
Overrides:
isSupportedLookAndFeel in class LookAndFeel
Tags copied from class: LookAndFeel
See Also:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(javax.swing.LookAndFeel)

initClassDefaults

protected void initClassDefaults(UIDefaults table)
Initialize the uiClassID to BasicComponentUI mapping. The JComponent classes define their own uiClassID constants (see AbstractComponent.getUIClassID). This table must map those constants to a BasicComponentUI class of the appropriate type.
Overrides:
initClassDefaults in class BasicLookAndFeel
See Also:
BasicLookAndFeel.getDefaults()

initSystemColorDefaults

protected void initSystemColorDefaults(UIDefaults table)
Load the SystemColors into the defaults table. The keys for SystemColor defaults are the same as the names of the public fields in SystemColor.
Overrides:
initSystemColorDefaults in class BasicLookAndFeel

initComponentDefaults

protected void initComponentDefaults(UIDefaults table)
Overrides:
initComponentDefaults in class BasicLookAndFeel

createDefaultTheme

protected void createDefaultTheme()

getDefaults

public UIDefaults getDefaults()
Description copied from class: LookAndFeel
This method is called once by UIManager.setLookAndFeel to create the look and feel specific defaults table. Other applications, for example an application builder, may also call this method.
Overrides:
getDefaults in class BasicLookAndFeel
Tags copied from class: LookAndFeel
