<Swing Dev> Native look and feel on linux [2]

[Alexey Ivanov]

Hi Yan,

You can put swing.properties file to <JRE>/lib directory as described 
here: 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/lookandfeel/plaf.html#properties

The contents of the file would be:

swing.systemlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel

This property file will set GTK LaF for all applications that use this 
JRE to run.


Regards,
Alexey
