Customize

The tables below contain useful UI-defaults which can be set by the UIManager for customizing a Synthetica look and feel programmatically. Use UIManager#put(Object key, Object value) for changing values.

The example below disables Synthetica's window decoration. Another more powerful, but more complex, method for customizing is the use of separate configuration files - see also Customization FAQ 1.
    UIManager.put("Synthetica.window.decoration", Boolean.FALSE);
    try
    {
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new SyntheticaStandardLookAndFeel());
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
    

General UI-Properties
Key Type Description
Synthetica.window.decoration Boolean Enable/disable window decoration. Default value is true. Note: To take effect the value has to be set before activating the Look and Feel.
Synthetica.text.antialias Boolean Paint all labels/text with or without antialias. Default value is false.
Synthetica.font.enabled Boolean Enable/disable custom font usage globally. 'Synthetica.font.disabled' is deprecated since V2.12. If disabled the configured synth font will be used. Default value is true. Since V2.12.0.
Synthetica.font.respectSystemDPI Boolean Enable/disable support for system DPI settings. Default value is true. Since V2.12.0.
Synthetica.font.scaleFactor Integer Font scale factor in percent. Default value is 100 which means no font scaling. Since V2.12.0.

Synthetica.activateMenuByAltKey Boolean Enable/disable menu activation by pressing the ALT-key. Optional value. Default value is true. Since V2.8.0.
Synthetica.window.opaque Boolean Enable/disable window opacity on Java 6u10 and above. A value of 'false' disables window opacity which means that the window corner background which is visible for non-rectangular windows disappear. Furthermore the shadow for popupMenus makes use of real translucent window. Some themes like SyntheticaSimple2D support translucent titlePanes if opacity is disabled. The property is ignored on JRE's below 6u10. Note: It is recommended to activate this feature only if your graphics hardware acceleration is supported by the JVM - a value of 'false' can affect application performance. Default value is true which means the translucency feature is disabled. Since V2.8.0.
Synthetica.translucency4DisabledIcons.enabled Boolean Enables usage of translucent icons for disabled components. Default value is false. Since V2.9.0.

There's no default value which means if not specified a recangle shape is used. Since V2.9.0.
Synthetica.window.arcW Integer Specifies the width arc for round rectangle shapes. Default value is 18. Since V2.9.0.
Synthetica.window.arcH Integer Specifies the height arc for round rectangle shapes. Default value is 18. Since V2.9.0.
