Description
The settings for cacheing of comonent states were never set correctly in the skin.laf for nimbus. Also the "opaque" setting was wrong for many components.

We are missing icons for JFileChooser for:

  - Directory Up
  - List View
  - Details View

The corners of buttons, the inner fill corner radius is too great causing the corners to look fuzzy and too thick a border.

Comments
EVALUATION We have a much better set of cache and opaque settings that make a big boost in performance. XDesign have provided the icon designs for the missing icons so we can now add those. The button corner radius needs changing from 12px to 9px for the inner fill.
