Napkin Look and Feel: Unable to display button text when it is disabled

[Yohan Weerasinghe]

Please have a look at the following code

import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import napkin.NapkinLookAndFeel;

public class Nap extends JFrame
{
    JButton btn = new JButton();
    
    public Nap()
    {
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        panel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
         panel.add(btn);
         
         
        btn.setText("X");
        btn.setEnabled(false);
        
        this.add(panel);
        this.setVisible(true);
        this.setSize(300,300);
        this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    }
    
    public static void main(String[]args)
    {
        try
        {
            Nap n = new Nap();
            UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new NapkinLookAndFeel());
            
            SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(n);
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
    
    
    
}

This code is using Napkin look and feel. But as you can see, the button text is not displayed. That is because it is "disabled". If I "enable" the button, then the text will be displayed.

How can I fix this? Please help!

This code is using Napkin look and feel. But as you can see, the button text is not displayed.

Unfortunately I don't have Napkin L&F and don;t want to download it so I can't see what you mean but from looking at the website for this look and feel the text should display as if it has been partly erased. If that is what you are seeing then that is how the L&F displays things and there isn't a lot you can do without changing the way the L&F works or you can use a different L&F.

If you are seeing something different can you include an image showing what it looks like.

Thansks for the reply. This is how it is

The simple answer is I don't know. I've now download the L&F and it works on my system albeit when disabled the text is actually bold rather than rubbed out.
I suspect the L&F is buggy as the only download I could find had the prefix of alpha001
