I finally got it to work by adding "cnb.org.netbeans.swing.laf.flatlaf" and "cnb.org.netbeans.swing.plaf" to the "Required Tokens" in the "Libraries" section of the module implementing the UI.

I am using Ant and Flatlaf with an RCP application. Haven't had the issue that you describe. I have those three modules enabled -- but also have all the other modules under "Platform" enabled. One of the tricks I've found when things are showing up in the RCP is to enable everything and then work back by disabling modules to see what the critical module needed is. I can confirm that I don't have anything special in layer.xml. In my Installer.java file I have the following validate() method: @Override public void validate() { // Set the look and feel to the FlatLightLaf look and feel NbPreferences.root().node("laf").put("laf", FlatLightLaf.class.getName()); } I'm not using the branding approach as per the discussion thread that you linked. If you're using Flatlaf and Scalable Vector Graphics you might also consider adding the Flatlaf extras library so that you can use the FlatSVGIcon. I've found that Flatlaf and SVG together makes for a very clean and professional appearance.

I have included "FlatLaf", "Flatlaf Look and Feel" and "Look & Feel Customization Library" in the RCP main application, but when I open the options dialog, only the built-in Look & Feel classes are shown in the drop down and the "FlatLaf" tab is missing completely. I can set it as the default L&F through the application branding (see https://github.com/apache/netbeans/discussions/5921#discussioncomment-5846499) but it still doesn't show up as a selectable option and the tab to configure FlatLaf doesn't show up either What am I missing? Do I need to add something to the layer.xml to make it appear? The project uses Ant (not Maven) Regards Thomas
