I think it can help a lot and you can easily make some funds out of it.

Nice job! I'm surprised they didn't even obfuscate names. Alternatively to using reJ, you can do the same at runtime using Javassist or ASM.

Lol that was too easy, seems like Javasoft has to work hard on their product.

I'm not trying to bash this in any way, but do people still use Swing? I and just about every company I've been working for has migrated to JavaFX & FXML. Has anyone here used JavaFX yet and still using Swing? If so, why?

Thanks for this will come in handy for sure

My College still uses Swing, Just because of outdated syllabus.

Thanks for the guide, it's very useful!
An other question: can't we just remove the whole thing from the bottom of the frame? Cause if i set it to null ("UIManager.put("Synthetica.rootPane.borderText", null);"), it's just turn into gray, but it's still there. The documentation sais it won't disappear in the trial version: "A single line of text which will be displayed at the bottom of each window - value 'null' means not visible. Optional value - default is null. Since V2.18.0. Note: The feature does not work with the evaluation copy or when the native frame decoration is enabled."
