Reseña del editor

With Java Look and Feel Design Guidelines, Second Edition, Sun's Java Look & Feel group delivers powerful guidance for building cross-platform Java applications and applets that are consistent, attractive, and offer outstanding usability and productivity. This brand-new, 4-color Second Edition is fully updated for Java 1.3 Standard Edition (Java 2), and contains a new CD-ROM packed with code developers can use to incorporate the design standards quickly and easily. Heavily endorsed and promoted by Sun, the book starts with a visual tour of a Java application and applet utilizing the Java Look and Feel and built with Java Foundation Classes (JFC) components. Next, it shows how to design user interfaces that work in heterogeneous environments, are easily internationalized, and offer outstanding usability.

Contraportada

"Great book! Fills a void in the Java world. Necessary reading for all Java developers, designers, and interface designers."
--Theo Mandel, Ph.D., author of "The Elements of User Interface Design" The adoption of the Java Look and Feel Design Guidelines has contributed to a consistent user interface that gives Java applications a recognizable, uniform design. However, the distinctions between interface designers and developers in today's Internet application development environment are increasingly blurred. Most developers also design applications, though few are solely dedicated to interface design tasks. With this situation in mind, the second edition of this award-winning book includes:

• New, updated, and expanded guidelines
• A companion CD-ROM with code samples and a large collection of graphics designed for use with Java Foundation Classes (JFC) components
• A comprehensive list of terms translated into nine languages

"The Java Look and Feel Design Guidelines, Second Edition"continues to be an invaluable resource for creating cross-platform Java applications and applets with JFC components. The book covers design concepts underlying the Java look and feel and techniques for managing cross-platform delivery, applets, accessibility, and internationalization. It introduces the visual design and behavior provided with the Java look and feel and provides instruction in the design of application graphics. Reference chapters discuss windows, dialog boxes, menus, toolbars, basic controls, text components, tables, and tree components.
