Bad News / Good News

The default LAF is blank. Actually, I noticed this yesterday
but forgot to report it. If I change it to Mac OS X, quit,
restart - things are OK (but I get the intro screen I had
previously said to forget) but if I click on "Set Defaults"
the LAF becomes empty...

Good news is that the browser link for help works as it should
(and did - don't know what I did to break that...)

Mac LAF is the default from ubeta onward. And old setting in a config file might be hitting you. Delete your old J directory (setting aside any important stuff), do a clean ubeta install, and you should get the Mac laf by default.

Subject: Re: Java Look and Feel - Was: [Jbeta] mac command shortcuts

Oleg,

I thought I had changed it, but I hadn't gotten past
an error that put me off. This time around, I succeeded
and like the appearance much better.

Eric, wouldn't it make sense to have Mac OS X as the
default appearance for Mac OS X installs??

But now (and maybe this is unrelated and just something
new in ubeta) clicking on Help doesn't launch a browser
as it used to.... Also I notice a finger action that
further confounds me - the various key shortcuts such
as <cmd><shift>n to get NB. inserted in the session cause
it to be displayed as selected text, so any normal key
causes it to be replaced by that key value. Furthermore
if I hit a right arrow to deselect the NB. control moves
to the next line of the input area. This is all part of
(what I consider) the strange behaviors of ijx panes
in the Mac version.

Anyway, thanks again for your insights and persistence.

- joey

No, it's not. The whole J menu is in the top system menu bar.

Have you selected "Mac OS X" for Look and Feel under
Java Settings in Configure dialog?
