Sorry, it can't. The operating system draws those widgets.

we have like i suppose all others done some additinal coding like that:

...
if (underline) {
logFontClass.getField("lfUnderline").set(logFont, new Byte((byte)
1));
}

for me, it is hard to explain, why we have to to some of such boring low
level tasks to other team members which came from other windows programming
environments, which have had such problems the last time in the mid 90s ;-)

there are some of such basically small things, but for beginners, they are
very hard to solve and maybe time consuming, which should not be the case i
think.

With this code, if your application relies on underlining to show something
to the user in the UI, your app will fail or look wrong everywhere else but
Windows. Obviously, we can't add this to the toolkit for that reason.
