I want to create a desktop application and use it on Ubuntu based distributions. I have very good knowledge on Java Desktop Applications. But look and feel of Java Desktop Applications in Linux doesn't look very good.

Is there any other way to get a more better and pleasant look ?

You can try using GTKLookAndFeel

javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel");

see the related question.

  • Do I need to specify the version of GTK with it. – Gaurav Dighe Oct 12 '14 at 04:42
  • No, I don't think there are versions. See [the look and feel tutorial](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/lookandfeel/plaf.html). It requires `GTK+ 2.2` or later. – mkayaalp Oct 12 '14 at 05:21
