JMetro “Metro” Tab, TreeView And ContextMenu For Java (JavaFX)

I’ve just released a new update for JMetro, bumping the version up to 3.3.0.

In this update you’ll find:

  • New TreeView Fluent Design System (‘Metro’) inspired style;
  • New Tabs and TabPane FDS inspired style;
  • New Context Menu dark FDS inspired style and retouch of light style.

JMetro version 3.3.0 details

ContextMenu dark style and light style update

Before this JMetro version the dark and light style of the Context Menu looked the same:

Context Menu – JMetro theme before version 3.3.0

With version 3.3.0, a dark theme has been added, and the light theme has been retouched, and made slightly more compact:

jmetro
ContextMenu JMetro light theme

jmetro
ContextMenu JMetro dark theme

Conclusion

That’s it for this post. 3 new styles have been added/retouched: TreeView, Tabs and ContextMenu. Follow me on twitter and subscribe to this blog if you want to stay up-to-date on the latest news. I’ll update the documentation in the next coming days.

Here’s what I have planned next for JMetro:

  • Retouch Radio Button style;
  • Add JMetro style for Menus;
  • Retouch Toggle Switch style;
  • Add capability to easily change colors of JMetro style;
  • Etc..
