Just for the heck of it. I keep a utility method that handles all of the
LAF's I use:
public void setSwingLAF(JFrame frame, String targetTheme)
{
String method = new
Throwable().getStackTrace()[0].getMethodName() + ": ";
//
// Set the User Profile LAF
JBookMarksPrefs.setLaf(targetTheme);
try
{
if (targetTheme.equalsIgnoreCase(NATIVE))
{
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAn dFeelClassName());
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(frame);
return;
} else if (targetTheme.equalsIgnoreCase(KUNSTSTOFF))
{
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new
com.incors.plaf.kunststoff.KunststoffLookAndFeel() );
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(frame);
return;
} else if (targetTheme.equalsIgnoreCase(JAVA))
{
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getCrossPlatfor mLookAndFeelClassName());
