    Default [SOLVED]: Look and Feel not working.

    Hello everyone!!!

    I am actually developing a desktop application and for that purpose i am using Synthetica Look and Feel. Well, it's much better for me to state here exactly the theme of Synthetica i am using. I am using Synthetica Black Eye look and feel.

    The problem is when i run my application it actually doesn't apply the look and feel and executes the catch part of try-catch. I am getting sick of this exception. Finally i planned to ask you guys for help.

    The code i am writing in the constuctor part is;
    public TestGUI() {
         try
        {
          UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new SyntheticaBlackEyeLookAndFeel());
        } 
        catch (Exception e)
        {
          e.printStackTrace();
        }
            loadComponents(); // Initiates all the swing components.
        }

    And when i run, it gives exception;

    Hi,
    The error is because of the not getting the appropriate jar in library/classpath.

    Core java

    Did you properly configure your program to find the appropriate jar files? Simply having the jar files != configuring your program to find/use them.

    Yes, i properly configured synthetica and synthetica black eye jar files. And now i have got one other clue and that is, synthetica blackeye is not allowed to use with non commercial applications. So, i want to ask, if it's a problem for my application?

    Are you directing me to this figure?
    try
    {
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel("de.javasoft.plaf.synthet ica.SyntheticaStandardLookAndFeel");
    //Another way is to use the #setLookAndFeel method of the SyntheticaLookAndFeel class
    //SyntheticaLookAndFeel.setLookAndFeel(String className, boolean antiAlias, boolean useScreenMenuOnMac);
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
    e.printStackTrace();
    }
    If yes, it will not actually change anything and yes, i have changed it like this but same problem. As it's only the path to the .jar, while i have been imported in my code above.

    Please don't resurrect a year old post. Create a new thread, and I'd recommend reading the link in my signature entitled 'Getting Help' prior to doing so.
