White flashing when opening Dialogs, Menus etc.

[Robert Krüger]

Hi,

we are using a customized Nimbus L&F (the customization is mostly
color changes) with dark backgrounds. Since we migrated our product
from Apple JDK 6 to OpenJDK 8 each JMenu or JDialog opens and first
draws a white rectangle that is then quickly replaced by the real
content, which has a rather unprofessional feel.

Has anyone had a similar problem and maybe a workaround other than not
having a dark background? Is there a known Jira issue I can follow?

I am currently running build 121 in development on Mac OS 10.8.

Thanks,

Robert
