Hello Elliott
Anyway, I have fixes for the first four (marked "[*]" rather than "*"),
and wondered if there's any interest.
We certainly interested in fixing all that problems
Should I raise one bug for the stuff
I've? Lots of extra bugs for the problems that don't already have bugs?
One big bug for the stuff I've fixed and lots of little bugs for the
stuff I've yet to look at?
One bug for all that stuff is okay,
I can file it for you if you send the description
from my earlier mail, slightly reworded in places, plus a few new ones on
the end:
* Transferring focus out of the "Color name:" field should update the
color.
* The "Color name:" field should accept X11 color names.
* "Color Name:" should be "Color name:".
* "R_ed:" should be "_Red:" (mnemonic index).
* The absence of a preview panel should imply no horizontal JSeparator
"separating" the normal content from the missing preview panel.
* Labels and fields should be aligned on their baselines, not against
the tops of their GridBagLayout cells.
* Spinner labels should be left-aligned. (Sun bug 4943902.)
* Spacing between columns of spinners is wrong. (Sun bug 4943902;
actually an optical illusion caused by the wrong alignment.)
* Spacing above and below the separator between the spinners and the
"Color name:" field is wrong.
* Focus cycle is H,R,S,G,V,B but should be H,S,V,R,G,B.
* The swatch is missing a border.
* "Dropper" button is missing (Sun bug 4869100).
* H,S,V seem to be percentages in the native dialog, not 0-360, 0-255, 0-255.
* The focus indicator on the circle/triangle component is wrong (should be
a dotted square border; is a solid circle).
* The rendering of the circle/triangle component is horribly aliased;
should be smooth.
* Use an empty preview panel with GTK+. (Sun bug 6417110.)
* Not have a "Reset" button with GTK+. (Sun bug 6417110, 4943902.)
* Order the other buttons "Cancel", "OK" (instead of the wrong way round).
(Sun bug 6417110.)
* Have the "Cancel" and "OK" buttons the same size. (Sun bugs 6417110,
5012459.)
* Use standard GTK+ "Cancel" and "OK" icons. (Sun bug 6417110.)
* Use standard GTK+ "_Cancel" and "_OK" mnemonics. (Sun bug 6417110,
4943902.)
* In the native GTK+ dialog, all (non-label) components have tool tips.
* The left-hand swatch should be a drag source (only).
* The right-hand swatch should be both a drag source and a drop target.
Or is the GTK JColorChooser going to be replaced with native code?
We might add native dialog support in JDK 7,
cool. it would be nice to see more attention to the AWT dialogs, plus a
few obviously missing ones (color and font choosers, for example).
but JColorChooser is not gonna be replaced anyway
Oh, and do I need to sort out the SCA before I show patches, or just
before they can be submitted? (I've deliberately not attached anything
here in case you don't want to see code not covered by an SCA.
That's right, we don't want to see code not covered by a SCA
:-)
okay. let me know when you get it (posted today from San Jose) and i'll
show you the fixes i have so far.
I haven't
filled out the SCA yet because, not living in the 1980s, I don't have
easy access to either a fax machine or a scanner.)
I do hope it won't be a big problem for you to find a scanner,
please find all the information about the SCA here:

Keep in touch
Thanks
