Synopsis:

Java Look and Feel Design Guidelines provides essential information for anyone involved in the process of creating cross-platform Java(TM) applications and applets. Offering design guidelines for software that uses the Java(TM) Foundation Classes (JFC) together with the Java look and feel, this book offers designers and software developers an unparalleled resource. The book addresses: *Design concepts underlying the Java look and feel *The JFC and effective ways to use JFC components *Techniques for handling the design challenges posed by cross-platform delivery, applets, accessibility issues, and internationalization and localization requirements *The flush 3D effect, drag texture, color model, and other graphical hallmarks of the Java look and feel *Windows, dialog boxes, menus, and toolbars *Basic controls *Display and editing of text *Tables, toolbars, and tree views *Keyboard navigation As the Java language has matured, designers and developers have come to recognize the need for consistent, compatible, and easy-to-use cross-platform Java applications.The Java look and feel meets that need by providing a distinctive platform-independent appearance and standard behavior for the enterprise environment. The use of this single look and feel reduces design cost and development time, and lowers the cost of training and documentation for all users. Written by the experts at Sun Microsystems, Inc., this timely book provides many useful recommendations to designers for the use of the Java look and feel.
