![]() ![]() ![]() Matlab, whose GUI is based on Java (not surprising to readers of this website), has chosen to use a platform-specific L&F on each of the platforms on which it is supported. The benefit of using Metal is that the application looks essentially the same on all Java-supported platforms the drawback is that they do not look like native applications on any platform… Java programmers can choose to use either a platform-independent L&F (called the Metal L&F), or a platform-specific L&F. In a nutshell, L&Fs affect the appearance and behavior of menus, controls, color schemes etc., using a properties plug-in architecture. Java has similar cross-platform compatibilities, but enables much greater control over the look-and-feel (L&F or PLAF) of application GUI. Generally speaking, Matlab applications written on Windows will work as-is on Macintosh and Linux. ![]() One of Matlab’s great advantages is cross-platform compatibility. So this is for you, Egon □ Matlab’s underlying Look-and-Feel Instead of providing a short answer, I will use the opportunity to answer in a full article. I have been looking into JavaFx but it doesn't seem to have square buttons or a metro feel at all from what I've read but maybe I'm missing something.A couple of days ago, a reader of this blog posted a comment, asking whether it is possible to change Matlab’s Desktop color scheme, and its general UI look. However it doesn't actually give any concrete ways to get for instance a square flat button:Ĭurrently I am using Eclipse but I'm not stuck on using that necessarily, but it wold be easiest. This read was at least a little closer to a discussion on native look and feel and java. The following link is the opposite of what I'm looking for, as a reference. I would especially like the buttons that are square and not rounded but all the other flat square look and feel too. I'm not talking about the layout but the look and feel. I would like it to look like the metro look of Windows 8. I am currently developing an application that will be desktop only with no CSS or any internet parts at all. I am really struggling to find a good answer to this question, as stated in the Title. ![]()
