Per the title - I can preview my projects in Metal, Nimbus, CDE/Motif, Windows, and Windows Classic, but I have to design my project with the Windows look and feel. Since I want it to be cross-platform (and most Java's default to Metal anyways), is there a way I can set Project Matisse (the GUI builder) to let me design my project with the Metal look and feel? I've read how to get NetBeans to use a different layout, but everything I read says that changes NetBeans itself, but not the GUI builder therein.
On a related note, is there a way to disable the snap-to-edges-or-other-objects feature for certain objects? It's certainly useful at times, but other times it makes it very frusterating to try to build a truly free-form project.

Moving to a more appropriate forum.

Thanks. Sorry about that, didn't even spot this forum.
And I did end up finding the answer. Google hadn't been helping, but AltaVista actually was very effective.
