FlatLaf Change Log

2.5-SNAPSHOT

New features and improvements

  • TabbedPane: New option to disable tab run rotation in wrap layout. Set UI value TabbedPane.rotateTabRuns to false. (issue #574)
  • Native window decorations (Windows 10/11 only): Added client property to mark components in embedded menu bar as "caption" (allow moving window). (issue #569)
  • Added system property flatlaf.updateUIOnSystemFontChange to allow disabling automatic UI update when system font changes. (issue #580)

Fixed bugs

  • Fixed missing UI value MenuItem.acceleratorDelimiter on macOS. (was null, is now an empty string)
  • Fixed possible exception in FlatUIUtils.resetRenderingHints(). (issue #575)

2.4

New features and improvements

  • Native window decorations (Windows 10/11 only):
    • There is now a small area at top of the embedded menu bar to resize the window.
    • Improved window title bar layout for small window widths:
      • Width of iconify/maximize/close buttons is reduced (if necessary) to give more space to embedded menu bar and title.
      • Window title now has a minimum width to always allow moving window (click-and-drag on window title). Instead, embedded menu bar is made smaller.
      • Option to show window icon beside window title, if menu bar is embedded or title is centered. Set UI value TitlePane.showIconBesideTitle to true.
    • No longer reduce height of window title bar if it has an embedded menu bar and is maximized.

Fixed bugs

  • ComboBox: Fixed vertical alignment of text in popup list with text in combo box in IntelliJ/Darcula themes.

    • Do not center window title if embedded menu bar is empty or has no menus at left side, but some components at right side. (issue #558)
    • Do not use window decorations if system property sun.java2d.opengl is true on Windows 10. (issue #540)

  • OptionPane: Fixed OptionPane.sameSizeButtons, which did not work as expected when setting to false.
  • OptionPane: Fixed rendering of longer HTML text if it is passed as StringBuilder, StringBuffer, or any other object that returns HTML text in method toString(). (similar to issue #12)

  • ComboBox: Fixed popup location if shown above of combo box (Java 8 only).
  • ComboBox (editable): Fixed wrong border of internal text field under special circumstances.
  • Spinner: Fixed painting of border corners on left side. (issue #382; regression since fixing #330 in FlatLaf 1.4)

  • Native window decorations (Windows 10 only):
    • Fixed occasional application crash in flatlaf-windows.dll. (issue #357)
    • When window is initially shown, fill background with window background color (instead of white), which avoids flickering in dark themes. (issue 339)

    • When resizing a window at the left/top edge, then first fill the new space with the window background color (instead of garbage) before the layout is updated.

1.4

New features and improvements

  • TextField, FormattedTextField and PasswordField: Support adding extra padding (set client property JTextField.padding to an Insets).

(issue #330)
  • ComboBox (not editable): Increased size of internal renderer pane to the component border so that it can paint within the whole component. Also increase combo box size if a custom renderer uses a border with insets that are larger than the default combo box padding (2,6,2,6).
  • Fixed component heights at 1.25x, 1.75x and 2.25x scaling factors (Java 8 only) so that Button, ComboBox, Spinner and TextField components (including subclasses) have same heights. This increases heights of Button and TextField components by:

    • Double-click at upper-left corner of maximized frame did not close window. (issue #326)
  • Linux: Fixed/improved detection of user font settings. (issue #309)
