Substance L&F: Getting Started Guide #51

Open cowwoc opened 12 years ago

cowwoc commented 12 years ago

Please provide a brief guide for new users. I'm only looking for two things:

  1. A visual list of available skins (or a runnable demo) to help us pick
  2. A code snippet that demonstrates installing a Substance L&F

You can address by #2 by linking to http://insubstantial.github.com/insubstantial/substance/docs/getting-started.html

But you still need to provide a runnable Webstart application to address #1.

1 can be addressed by the example code found at the bottom of http://insubstantial.github.com/insubstantial/substance/docs/skins/overview.html

The example code contains a bug, however. Please add:

SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(SwingUtilities.getRoot(SubstanceSkinComboSelector.this));

after

SubstanceLookAndFeel.setSkin(((SkinInfo) SubstanceSkinComboSelector.this.getSelectedItem()).getClassName());

Can you make a patch for the docs and push them? The web pages themselves live at https://github.com/Insubstantial/insubstantial/blob/gh-pages/ and the referenced page is at https://github.com/Insubstantial/insubstantial/blob/gh-pages/substance/docs/skins/overview.html
