Perhaps simpler than a dialog would be to just switch to FlatLAF Light for any
user who has not explicitly touched the LAF setting in the past.
there might be a way to probe the background color of the system look
and feel and check if its dark or not and use that information to set
the right FlatLAF.
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(
UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
System.out.println(frame.getContentPane().getBackground());
This seems to work even when the frame is not set visible (only tested
it on linux).

Alternatively, we could switch unconditionally to FlatLAF Light for everyone,
once only--i.e. leave a flag in the user directory that shows that the forced
switch has been made and should not be attempted again in the future.

What would be the conclusion of this topic?
Well, my conclusion is that we should be looking to make FlatLaf Light the
default for everyone with NB 13. At least judging from comments, and
(something I think is important) what we seem to be using ourselves. The only
-1 here seems to have become a +1 now?
If anyone wants to argue against that reading, please do so.
Is there someone willing to implement this feature?
I was planning to look at it, which was why I kicked off the discussion.
Discussions where the person instigating is proposing to do the work are always
good, although my NetBeans available time has been a bit tied up over the last
few weeks to follow up! :-)
If anyone would be interested, probably the best place to implement is
in: nb/o.n.upgrader
That's an interesting one. I've already looked at a few places this could be
implemented, but not even looked at that one. Why there? If in terms of an
initial dialog, then I think we should consider startup options as a different
task - bit chicken and egg.
I think there's a question whether this should be in the platform or nb cluster
too? If in the former, need to make sure it's optional still though.
Best wishes,
Neil
