I'm writing some nice looking components, or I'm trying to at least.. Is there 
any way to affect the anti aliasing "weight" on normal draws, like lines and 
the rounded corners of a RoundRectangle2D?

They are to heavy in general. You can see this for instance in the roundness of 
the buttons in the Numbus L&F:

Look at the third "Close" button from the left in the top row. The top corners 
are too thick. This happens only for darker colors though.


While we are on the subject of gfx and Nimbus. Run the webstart app and look at 
the buttons. You'll see the problem with differently sized corners of 
RoundeRectangles that I've mentioned several times. Check the top four buttons 
in the "Color Chooser" tab and you'll see what I mean (the corners have 
different radius).

I hope these glitches gets fixed soon as it is hard to create high fidelity 
stuff that looks as posh as Apples' stuff when the above problems are present.

Btw, this was tested on Windows with Java 1.6.0_01 with the normal pipeline. 
And I do off course know about PURE strokes, fractional metrics and all those 
kind of rendering hints...

Cheers,
