Well things come back under new name and is hype nowadays. There is
nothing wrong with it.
What style do you prefer? The old Windows 95 style?
So Flat or Material is a matter of taste of each other and those are not
popular for nothing, until next hype is coming and we have new work to
redesign the application :D.
As other already said, you can change this LaF very easily. It could
also called Easy LaF. You can change whatever you want.
Cheers

Neil, it was certainly not my intention to be impolite in expressing my
opinion. Let me explain.
All the hysteria over the "new, modern FLAT" look is quite amusing. It
actually looks like something right out of the late 70s or early 80s when
our "big" desktops had 64K memory and something approaching 1GB HHD. It is
colorless, lifeless, drab and so retro. I, personally, do not comprehend
why it grabs so much attention. Those of us who grew up with FLAT outgrew
it. We can only hope it happens again.
That is why, in my opinion, FLAT is nonsense.
I don't know who developed the NB implementation of FLAT. I have read it
is not easy to develop a laf for NB so whoever did it has greater skills
than do I. It certainly is not my intention to denigrate that developer's
abilities.
It will, however, be a sad day if/when FLAT becomes the only available laf
for NB. As long as I can, changing the laf is the first configuration
change I will make to a new install.

FlatLaf is the only supported look and feel for the IDE, and it has the
added benefit that the main developer is also a committer here. Please keep
your opinions polite!
