Using OYOAHA LookAndFeel:

java.lang.Object
+ javax.swing.LookAndFeel
  + javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLookAndFeel
    + javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel
      + com.oyoaha.swing.plaf.oyoaha.OyoahaLookAndFeel

Constructor

public OyoahaLookAndFeel()
public OyoahaLookAndFeel(boolean enableRollover)

Methods to set a MetalTheme:

public void setCurrentTheme(javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalTheme theme)
public void setCurrentTheme(java.io.File file)
public void setCurrentTheme(java.net.URL url)
public void setCurrentTheme(java.io.InputStream stream)

Methods to set a oyoaha theme:

public void setOyoahaTheme(java.io.File file)
public void setOyoahaTheme(java.net.URL url)
public void setOyoahaTheme(java.io.InputStream stream)

MetalTheme and OyoahaTheme can be used at same time.
By default rollover is enabled.
Some OyoahaTheme may use color and font information found in MetalTheme.
For more information about MetalTheme look:

  • the MetalLookAndFeel documention
  • the MetalTheme documention
  • the Metalworks demo from the JDK

import javax.swing.*;
import java.io.*;

try
{
  File file = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), "gang.otm");
OyoahaLookAndFeel lnf = new OyoahaLookAndFeel();

if(file.exists())
lnf.setOyoahaTheme(file);

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(lnf);
}
catch (Exception e)
{

}

To use oyoaha lookandfeel with a oyoaha theme loaded from resource:

import com.oyoaha.swing.plaf.oyoaha.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.net.*;

try
{
  OyoahaLookAndFeel lnf = new OyoahaLookAndFeel();

URL url = getClass().getResource("gang.otm");

import com.oyoaha.swing.plaf.oyoaha.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.net.*;

try
{
  URL url = getClass().getResource("pink.theme");
OyoahaLookAndFeel.setCurrentTheme(url); OyoahaLookAndFeel lnf = new OyoahaLookAndFeel();

url = getClass().getResource("gang.otm");
lnf.setOyoahaTheme(url);

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(lnf);
}
catch (Exception e)
{

}

Here's a code snippets which is provided by Bradlee bradleej@austin.rr.com, thanks to him :-)
It's for use in an application environment, a properties file which allows changing the runtime look without recompiling the application. Basically the properties file looks like this:

tgang.otm

// Copy and paste one of the following values to use that theme
//Valid valudes for the first line are:

zipper.otm
slushy.otm
tgang.otm
flat1.otm
anidaisy.otm

At the top line, before the comment, tgang.otm is being specified as the current look and feel. All that is required to change that is for the user to select one of the other otm names listed and cut & paste that to the first line.

import com.oyoaha.swing.plaf.oyoaha.*;
