用Java设置GUI组件样式的方法

Question

I'm creating a user interface for a java standalone desktop application but the forms, text fields and tables I built using javax.swing and java.awt packages look quite dull. Are there any methods by which these components can be stylized so that they look more appealing (like those beautiful websites made with css and javascript) ?

Answer 1

You can set the background, border, foreground, etc of these components. Consult the API for useful functions.

Or you can change the look and feel of your entire program. Recommended reading: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/lookandfeel/plaf.html

Answer 2

You could use Look and Feel, there are libraries that set your all your components with a defined style.
