Synthetica ‘Look and Feel For Swing’ 2.9.2

Version 2.9.2 of the Synthetica ‘Look and Feel For Swing’ is now available. Synthetica is a Synth-based tool that provides different visual themes for the core components of Swing, such as rounded borders and shadowed popup menus. Existing themes can be modified by editing the XML-based configuration files.

This version introduces updated background colour support for components; a new UI-property to improve content border gap customisation; and added support for UI-property “Button.showMnemonics.” It also fixes a tendency to not properly centre one-touch buttons of a JsplitPane, if a border is set.
