NetBeans RCP looking like MS Word

[John Muir]

I think it war Tor who mentioned on 289 a screen shot of a NB RCP that
looked like MS Word. Does anyone have more information or a link on
this? Thanks...

Here is some info on it.
I didnt find any ready to download dist, so i think you have to
download and build the source. but it looks pretty nice.
I tried it some, and after just adding the module, everything looked
alot nicer, and almost everything still worked. So its realy
promising.

That looks like l2fprod and/or SwingLabs components though more than
anything I have ever seen in NetBeans. Ribbon interface, Task panes
and a proper Property editor. I've made similar rich things using the
now dead JSR-296. As such, it doesn't really demonstrate anything
particular about the RCP does it?

Let me rephrase as a question. Is that purely a skin (UIDelegates)
over the existing NetBeans components (Outline, Palette etc.)?

Yes and no - I mean, yes, they are UIDelegates, but NetBeans has got a
few on its own. So it's not just the matter of adding a jar and calling
setLookAndFeel().
