I would say that this is also an issue for the Mac. 1) The icon looks crappy when it's in the dock already. (It 
should be more streamlined, and definitely lose the white corners. (Make them transparent or something.) 
Also when you minimize 5.0 beta onto the dock, it is an extremely blurry netbeans icon instead of what's 
going on in the IDE. Big problem with NetBeans' image.

This issue is related to sliding windows. Josef is currently working on that so I'm reassigning this issue to 
him.
Comment 3 _ rkubacki 2006-12-01 14:58:24 UTC
Affects both look and feel - sliding button/icon has rollover effect and itis
dimmed by default and only when I hover mouse over it it is colored. Contrary to
a close button that is next to it and does not have such behaviour. (that;s how
it works on Linux & Solaris)
Comment 4 Josef Pavlicek 2006-12-04 13:15:10 UTC
I know about that. We are collecting all buttons together for all platforms.
Each close, slide, dock etc buttons should be 12x12 pix and have RollOver,Press
down,  and normal state.
Thanks for your  contribution
Josef
