Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-67:
----------------------------------------
For me as a Front-End dev, with HTML/CSS/JS experiences, it would be great, to
change the UI to using plain HTML with CSS styling, it is really simple to load
it via such WebView. Only a suggestion.
> Replace Java SplashScreen with a custom window.

> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Other
> Reporter: Laszlo Kishalmi
> Priority: Minor
>
> Unfortunately the Java SplashScreen feature is not well maintained. It looks
> really odd on Linux multi-monitor displays trying to arrange the screen on
> the middle of the two monitors. I think the intention of this Java feature
> was to create prompt response to the user on opening a Java application. Well
> disk and hardware get quicker and Java get leaner on load (with Java 9).
> This feature could be replaced by using a custom window instead.
> This would improve on two things:
> - Placement of the Splash Screen could be really multi-monitor aware
> - There is a flicker on startup for those who are upgrading from dev/release
> candidate to final release. The first image says developer version then it
> updates to release
> I'm trying to work something out. Though there is some chance to have some
> interference with the platform branding.
