Hi Robert,
Could you send a sample that draws a JTree and set necessary icons/colors in the Nimbus L&F to investigate the issue?

Hi, we are in the process of migrating an application from Apple JDK 6 to OpenJDK 8, which is going pretty well thanks to the progress that's been made in recent months by the Oracle team (thanks for that). Now we discovered that for the time being we will have to deploy with a bundled Oracle JRE 7 (currently testing v. 1.7.0_51). When we started our application with that runtime, we encountered significant problems with UI colors (see attached screen shots comparing a tree in the three mentioned runtimes). Now, the color difference between Apple JDK and Open JDK is not the main problem but the one with Oracle JRE 7 certainly is because in Nimbus (which we use with some color modifications), the color changes don't seem to be consistent leading to the effect that you see in the tree example. Before I put lots of "if (jdkVersion == X) modify colors ..." in our code and adjust this by trial and error, is this known and is there a better approach for solving this systematically? Here are the screenshots as links (if they don't make it through as attachments): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33388463/colors-jdk6-s.png https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33388463/colors-jdk7-s.png https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33388463/colors-jdk8-s.png Thanks, Robert
