JLabel.setForeground

Can I still do that? It seems I'm gretting gray labels when Substance is enabled even if I say setForeground(Color.WHITE). Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong.

With Substance:

Without Substance:

BTW, with some twists (and apart of this bug), I got full-screen finally working well with Substance on Linux and Windows now. If anyone is interested: The magic for that is here.

See SubstanceLookAndFeel.COLORIZATION_FACTOR

How would I use it? Does it break anything else?

How would I use it?

component.putClientProperty(SubstanceLookAndFeel.COLORIZATION_FACTOR, new Double(factor));

I don't quite understand the question of "break anything else".

By choosing to use a look-and-feel you choose to have your entire UI rendered by that look-and-feel. If you want to have some parts of your UI use colors that are different from that look, you're already breaking some visual continuity and consistency.

Substance decoration areas and decoration painters allow to maintain such consistency while also delineating and designating certain areas of your app as "special" ones - such as toolbar or footers for example. If you go lower than that and start setting custom foreground / background colors on specific controls, that might indeed create visual disparities.

Up to you how far you want to deviate from a Substance skin.

I thought it was a global option

As I said, see the COLORIZATION_FACTOR and its Javadocs
