Class Options

public final class Options extends Object

Provides access to optional features of the JGoodies L&Fs via a key to the system properties, via a key for the UIDefaults table, via a method, or all of them.

API users can use this class' constants or their values to configure the JGoodies L&amP;f. Using the constants requires the Looks library classes in the class path of the using application/applet, where using the String values doesn't require having this class in the class path.

Method Detail

getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName

public static String getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName()
Returns the class name for a cross-platform LookAndFeel.

Returns: the name of a cross platform look-and-feel class

See Also: getSystemLookAndFeelClassName

getDefaultIconSize

public static Dimension getDefaultIconSize()
Returns the default icon size that is used in menus, menu items and toolbars. Menu items that have no icon set are aligned using the default icon dimensions.

Returns: the dimension of the default icon

See Also: setDefaultIconSize

Returns the class name that can be used to replace the specified LookAndFeel class name.

Parameters: className the name of the look-and-feel class

Returns: the name of the suggested replacement class

See Also: Options removeLookAndFeelReplacement

getSelectOnFocusGainEnabled

public static Boolean getSelectOnFocusGainEnabled(JTextComponent c)
Returns component's individual setting for the select on focus gain feature.

Parameters: c the component to check

Returns: Boolean.TRUE if enabled, Boolean.FALSE if disabled, null if the global default is used

Since: 2.2

See Also:

getSystemLookAndFeelClassName

public static String getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()
Returns the class name for a system specific LookAndFeel.

Returns: the name of the system look-and-feel class

See Also: getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName

getUseNarrowButtons

public static boolean getUseNarrowButtons()
Checks and answers if we shall use narrow button margins of 4 pixels. As of the Looks version 1.4 the default value is true (narrow) for the JGoodies Windows L&F and the JGoodies Plastic L&F family. The native Windows L&F uses narrow margins too. The default can be disabled in the system properties or UIManager.

Note: Using narrow button margins can potentially cause compatibility issues, if you don't take care that command buttons with short labels (OK) get a reasonable minimum width. Therefore you can get back to wide button margins using #setUseNarrowButtons. Sun's L&F implementations use a wider button margin of 14 pixels.

Narrow button margins make it easier to give buttons in a button bar the same width, even if some button labels are long. And narrow margins are useful for embedded command buttons that just have an icon, or an ellipsis (…). Many style guides recommend to use a minimum button width in command button bars, for example 50 dialog units on Windows. Such a minimum width makes it easier to click a button, just because the button area has a reasonable minimum size. To ensure a reasonable button minimum width, you may configure a LayoutManager, use a special panel for command button bars, or a factory that vends command button bars.

The JGoodies FormLayout can layout button bars that comply with both the MS Windows Layout Guidelines and the Mac Aqua Human Interface Guidelines. The JGoodies Forms contains a ButtonBarBuilder to build command button bars, and a ButtonBarFactory that vends frequently used button bars.

Returns: true (default) if all buttons shall use narrow margins, false for wider margins

See Also: Options USE_NARROW_BUTTONS_KEY

getUseSystemFonts

public static boolean getUseSystemFonts()
Returns whether native system fonts shall be used, true by default unless disabled in the system properties or UIManager.

Returns: true unless disabled in the system properties or UIManager
