I don't like this ugly FileChooser layout in Linux.
This layout is used by any other program and is MUCH more beautiful.
Is this layout available in Java? If so, how?

why you don't search before posting?

Update: this project is dedicated to solving the problem.

I do not believe this is a duplicate. The suggested solutions in the other questions do not help the situation in Linux (GTK at least).

  • AWT's FileDialog looks different than JFileChooser, but really just as strange. It does not look like the file choosers of native GTK applications.
  • XFileDialog is Windows-only and falls back on JFileChooser in GTK.
  • VFSJFileChooser does not have improved GTK LAF as a goal.

Unfortunately I do not know of any file chooser that looks native in GTK. Hopefully someone else does.

Thanks! I think I'm going to use the VFSJFileChooser in futur! Thanks
