Re: [nebula-dev] [Grid] Look-and-feel
|
I think the lesson from Swing is that matching the platform look and feel is really really hard.
In the beginning, some of your users will complain because your widgets are grossly different.
Then, once you get them mostly right, a different set of users will complain that they just sufficiently different to be annoying.

I noticed that the ToggleRenderer that is used in the
DefaultCellRenderer to display the + and - checkbox
doesn't have any support for the Vista tree
look-and-feel, and I'm curious first of all if that is
desirable, and second, how best to provide that
functionality.
This probably has broader implications for Nebula, as
these more advanced widgets are going to require more
custom drawing than the SWT widgets have in the past.
Any ideas? Lessons from Swing? I could obviously
flex the ToggleRenderer based on
System.getProperty
("os.name"), but I'm not sure that's
the best way to go about it.
