Thanks for an answer! I've got the principle of work. You've marked my bug as invalid - Is it possible to see gtk laf on non-gnome DEs by default ? (I guess this question should be adressed to openjdk developers). When will ubuntu packages of openjdk be shiped with gtk laf by default? (which bugs should I follow to track the status). And what will be the rules when the bugs will be fixed? I imagine like this:
On Gnome DE (Gnome and Unity7): default LAF is gtk, using UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()) will make LAF "GTK" On non-gnome DE (Xfce e. g.): default LAF is gtk, using UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()) will make LAF "SilverBlue". The last one seems to be controversial. Avoiding of usage setLookAndFeel will cause my app to look SilverBlue on Win/OSX and Native on Linux :) I am able to rewrite my code, but there are apps like Yed, Logisim which use setLookAndFeel, they look native everywhere except Ubuntu :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-7 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581835 Title: Native Look and Feel for Swing does not work Status in openjdk-7 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in openjdk-8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Openjdk-7 and openjdk-8 do not enable native look and feel by default.

Apps use ugly blue theme, even if the code contains "UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());" I've tried Xubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu Mate 16.04 - apps look ugly.
