CommandLinkButton: font size and color incorrect for windows

[kleopatra]

As far as I can see - the uxguide doesn't explicitly mention it as the CommandLinkButton is a standard win widget, so just looking at native examples - the size of the instruction should be the same a the size of the mainInstruction of the task dialog.

I've seen that there is already an issue over at google concerning the not quite fitting blue, just reminding you :-). Additionally, the explaining text should be blue as well (instead of black, as it is right now).

Do you have a good source of info on exactly what the fonts, font sizes and colors should be?

[kleopatra]

no, nothing else the uxguide your read as well and the monitor I'm looking at :-)

There's a table about fonts which states the color of the main instruction for the normal theme - but don't know how/where to get it if users had changed it on their system.

Also, there seems to be a bug in Swing's lookup of default font: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11309861/bug-or-feature-swing-default-gui-font-incorrect-for-win6 - as a side-effect, the typeface of the main instruction is wrong (should be SegoeUI, not Tahoma)

Comments from issue #26 on Google Code :

The colors should match a native Task Dialog, but the headers have a different color. The Color of the Windows-Own Headers #003366 is not a System-Color. So TextHighlight.darker() does NOT match that color. Also the Font is normal Segoe UI and not Segoe UI Semibold as in the native Task Dialogs.
