Netbeans using old java theme look!

[tobiaswk]

Hello.

I have a weird and very annoying problem. When I compile and run I get "the old" java theme look instead of the native system look. It has done this since I upgraded to version 6.0 final of netbeans. The really weird thing is that in the GUI builder I have the native windows xp look, like it should be, but not when compile and run.

Here is a screenshot showing the problem:

Hope on a solution! :)

you have put this code  to main method

 try {
          

            UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
            Exceptions.printStackTrace (ex);
        } catch (InstantiationException ex) {
            Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
        } catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
            Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
        } catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
            Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
        }
    }

FYI for future - This type of question best for nbdiscuss list.

That said,
Try adding the code to directly set the look&feel.

Search for "Programatically Setting the Look and Feel"

Thank you! Its partially working now. Now I only have one problem... if you look at this screenshot you will notice that the background colour is not using the system-look. I cant even change the background to correct the problem. What is the problem?



Best regards Tobias and thank you for your help so far! :)

I've sorted the problem myself. The solutions was to add a Panel on the frame.
