DevCharly opened a new pull request #3523:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3523
This PR allows changing FlatLaf theme from light to dark, and vice versa,
without restarting NetBeans.
There is a new "Dark Mode" toggle action at bottom of "View" menu (enabled
if FlatLaf is active).
Changing look and feel in Options dialog still requests a restart.
This can be changed later when this is more tested.
At the moment I would classify the Laf switching in NetBeans as
**experimental**.
It works, but there may be hidden issues. Wrong colors may be one problem,
but it may be also possible that functionality (e.g. in editors) is broken
after switching Laf.
Known Issues:
- Editors: caret jumps to beginning of file on Laf toggle (and looses focus)
- Java Editors: occurrences selection have wrong background after Laf toggle
- Java Editors: text colors in auto-completion popup are not updated
- "Tools > Templates" dialog: "Templates" tree has wrong color
- Terminal view colors not updated
- Tasks view and editors colors not updated
- Start page colors not updated
- Navigator view: toolbar and combobox sometimes have wrong colors
- GUI builder: design area, palette, properties and navigator views not
updated correctly
- Options:
- Editor > Formatting: "Language" combobox replaces parts of the dialog,
which are not updated.
- Editor > Hints: tree renderer has wrong background
I've only tested in the "Java" area. There may be more issues in other areas
(PHP, HTML, CSS, etc).
If you find a problem not listed above, please report it here. Best with a
**screenshot**.
For reviewers: I've noted in the commit messages what was changed/fixed in
what class.
