About the Book

With Java Look and Feel Design Guidelines, Second Edition, Sun's Java Look & Feel group delivers powerful guidance for building cross-platform Java applications and applets that are consistent, attractive, and offer outstanding usability and productivity. This brand-new, 4-color Second Edition is fully updated for Java 1.3 Standard Edition (Java 2), and contains a new CD-ROM packed with code developers can use to incorporate the design standards quickly and easily. Heavily endorsed and promoted by Sun, the book starts with a visual tour of a Java application and applet utilizing the Java Look and Feel and built with Java Foundation Classes (JFC) components. Next, it shows how to design user interfaces that work in heterogeneous environments, are easily internationalized, and offer outstanding usability. It includes detailed coverage of "look" issues (color, graphics, layout, typography and animation) and "feel" issues (how users and computers interact). It contains a detailed glossary of terms, JFC keyboard navigation and activation sequences, and more.The CD-ROM includes all samples from the printed book, 75 additional code samples, a repository of icon samples, plus electronic versions of the book in HTML and PDF formats.
