Hi Alfras,

our fault I'm afraid - the look and feel options are hard coded, rather
than being derived from the system. It's fairly easy to fix if you're keen
- you should be able to set it directly in the config file (it won't appear
in the menu, but the app should come up as you want it to...)

cheers,

- Chris
Dear Cris,
JXplorer does not allow to select GTK Style look and feel on Kubuntu
8.04.1 running with KDE 3.5.9. This style can be selected from other
Java applications. However, for JXplorer the choices are Java look and
feel or Motif look and feel. Both choices does give the nice
experience working with JXplorer. In one you get tired from bold fonts
and other is just complytely different than the rest of the system.
Is is a feature of JXplorer, that it is limited to these choices, or
is it just my configuration?
If this is a feature, are you planing changing it?

Excellent - sorry it's not standard :-).
Hi Chris,
I apologize for misspeling your name :(.
Thanks for the tip, it worked fine. I added
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel
