I know another NetBeans user who wants off-white / light grey rather than white backgrounds. He uses the jvi plug-in and uses a light grey background for it, but the rest of the panels are not so easily changed, which is a source of annoyance for him. -- Jess Holle ??(milan) wrote: yes you

If you are running Ubuntu/Compiz, you can go behind NetBeans back by using the Opacity, Brightness and Saturation plugin. By turning brightness and/or opacity down a notch or two, the entire application can be dimmed. For this to work, one would have to use the latest Java6 update 10 to avoid the

Are you guys running NetBeans with JDK6 -update1- or later? If so, the look and feel should pick up your gtk themes automatically. (Running with JDK 6 earlier than update 1 will -not- automatically use the GTK look and feel if I remember correctly because there were some serious bugs. (If you're

I also have to admit that the plugin system of NetBeans is much better that the Eclipse thing. Sometimes you mess up you configuration and then you can not update anymore because of conflicts. And till now it was to complicated to resolve them somehow so I always did a new installation :) But

True, the project group is somewhat of an afterthought (started as a 6.0 plugin) and it has been showing. But in 6.5rc it seems much more stable and reliable than previously, although still horrendously slow and without any visual indications as to what's going on (yes I have filed a RFE).

The default project allows one to choose which project is being actively worked on so that all of the menu commands (such as build, debug, etc) will work directly with that project. In other words, it allows you to tie one project to the overall Netbeans control structure. That way, you can use
