Dear Eirik We have read the google sheet. Do you have time to have a zoom this week? So we can have a jump start 🙂

Fantastic! I'm happy to join a chat--it would be good to include anyone else on this list who is interested as well. For actual decision-making, discussions should happen on the email list, so that everyone can follow along. But a Zoom meeting might be good for a quick overview. The style guide that was used for the first 50 icons is described on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2617 . The original discussion around this can be found at https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2387 . (If helpful, I could add some example images to the style guide and perhaps pull it out of the JIRA issue and into a separate Confluence page.) -- Eirik -----Original Message----- From: Peter Cheung <mcheun...@hotmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2021 9:18 AM To: dev@netbeans.apache.org Subject: Re: New theme for netbeans, team member wanted Hi Eirik We definitely want to help out for the icons. What style you want? How about I line up our designers with you for a meeting?

There is one big theme-related task which is pending, which is to create new SVG versions of various bitmap icons in the IDE, for modern Retina/HiDPI screens. I did the first 50 (in Adobe Illustrator), and picked out the next ones to be prioritized, as you can see here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/13026411/13026411_210604+Icons+Overview+Cropped.png https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1U_pj-I3hk9Wj_7lvHcUDsZfFfBSyCkSGqBuv0qt_qXw/edit#gid=812179705 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2617 If you are interested in helping with the icon drawling effort, I'd be happy to help coordinate. As for the Look & Feel, I think NetBeans will now be switching to FlatLAF as the default on all 3 operating systems (Windows, Linux, MacOS). I just transitioned my own NetBeans Platform application to FlatLAF, and it's a very good basis for making NetBeans look good in the future. It's also very configurable, so I think alternative themes can be implemented by means of configuring and improving FlatLAF, rather than by creating a completely new Swing LAF. -- Eirik -----Original Message----- From: Christian Lenz <christian.l...@gmx.net> Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2021 11:31 AM To: dev@netbeans.apache.org Subject: AW: New theme for netbeans, team member wanted Hey Peter, great to have you on board already. We are discussing to add the Flat LaF as a default theme to NetBeans which is already implemented, but we need to switch to it. What I can say what we need is a designer for maybe new UI components. Some components in NetBeans can be combined into one for example Input + button to search for paths etc. Some other parts need a redesign and also proposals. So let us know, what you think to change in NetBeans and show us some examples and let us discuss about it 😊. Cheers Chris Von: Peter Cheung Gesendet: Dienstag, 23.

I love Netbeans and have been developed few plugins for it. This proves my ambition in Netbeans. https://gitlab.com/quantr/toolchain/netbeans-verilog https://gitlab.com/mcheung63/netbeans-quick-outline https://gitlab.com/mcheung63/MavenRunner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDFkhrHxHMw Many people said VSCode and intelliJ looks fancier than Netbeans. We want to contribute our power to theme the netbeans, my company has two designers. Below are some of their artworks I have experience in java swing styling, I did developer a L&F ten years ago https://gitlab.com/mcheung63/peter-swing Netbeans is very complex piece of code, we want team members to 1. Guide us, instruct us 2. Comment the style 3. Help us when we meet trouble in code 4.
