Opaque menus it is
You should be able to see opaque menus now. Thanks for the comments.

Like the dark look
I appreciate the light-on-dark look, good job.
I'm not such a big fan of transparent menus. I prefer opaque.

work around
This happens because there seems to be no straight forward way to enforce netbeans restart on plugin reactivation.
When the plugin is deactivated netbeans forces a restart, so it is able to set the LAF to the default Synth on restart. But on reactivation, since there is no restart enforced, Installer is directly being called which is inturn setting the LAF to NimROD at runtime and hence the ClassCastException.
So I have requested a feature enhancement that would give plugin developers the liberty to request system restart if needed.
Until that point, the only way to get around this is by manually restarting netbeans after reactivating the plugin.

half applied theme on reactivation
Hi there,
Installing it, activating it and deactivating it OK, however, re-activating it partially applies the theme to the IDE (unless you restart the IDE)
The changes I noticed:
> The plugin screen is themed
> Members View has is themed
> Half the menu labels are white
> Menu icons disappeared
Tested on: NetBeans IDE 7.1 RC2 (Build 201111302200)
Java: 1.7.0; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 21.0-b17
System: Windows 7 64bit

UI pb on reactivation
Hi,
a little problem :
- install the plugin, restart the IDE
- deactivate the plugin, restart the IDE
- reactivate the plugin => the Look&Feel is not updated, only some parts of the UI come from the new L&F
After a NetBeans restart, the L&F is ok.
Could you ask the user to restart NetBeans after the plugin reactivation ? (if it is technically possible)
Thx.
Tested on the latest Dev Build, JDK 6u29 and 7u01, WinXP SP3 x86_32.
