Scout & Swing LAF [message #667610]

When I run Eclipse Scout with Swing, is there a way to modify or even hide the light-blue area between the menus and the main default windows?

The light-blue area remains the same, I tried running Scout with Nimbus, Aqua Look and Feels and others. Also, the AbstractOutlineViewButtons have always the same look and feel, not changing to the Java LAF.

Thanks
Adrian

Hi Adrian

Yes you can replace that bar with an own implementation or you can use the class LegacySwingScoutRootFrame which should look better with the default look and feels. But keep in mind it is legacy so it possibly will be removed sometime.

To replace the default bar you need to override a method in the class SwingApplication.

public class SwingEnvironment extends DefaultSwingEnvironment {

  @Override
  public ISwingScoutRootFrame createRootComposite(Frame rootFrame, IDesktop desktop) {
    ISwingScoutRootFrame ui = new LegacySwingScoutRootFrame(this, rootFrame, desktop);
    decorate(desktop, ui);
    return ui;
  }

}

I agree that the default bar does not look good with the java LAFs. Could you report a bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Scout&am p;format=guided? That would be great.

Hope that helps.

Regards
Claudio
