How Set Look and Feel for JButton 1

[YerMom]

Hi.

I have an app that is a class that extends JFrame. In the class's constructor, I've set the JFrame look and feel like so:

String windowsClassName = "com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel";
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(windowsClassName);

This code works. However, the JFrame also has some JButtons that do not seem to have acquired the windows look and feel. Specifically, the buttons have a flat appearance with square borders. Are there additional steps I need to take to make the buttons get the windows look and feel? I'm on windows xp.

Thanks much.

Take a look at this page:

Thanks, MonnkSnake. I discovered I had some initialization code before I set the look and feel. I moved the setLookAndFeel call so it appears first and now the JFrame looks the way it should.
