JDK-6860433 - [Nimbus] Code to set a single slider's thumb background doesn't work as specified
Description
The slider skinning example src attached from http://www.jasperpotts.com/blog/2008/08/skinning-a-slider-with-nimbus/ works in 6u10 b25 beta and is broken in 6u10 b28 RC. The issue is the client property "Nimbus.Overrides.InheritDefaults" = false is never picked up if set after "Nimbus.Overrides".  

There is a workaround by setting "Nimbus.Overrides.InheritDefaults" = false before setting "Nimbus.Overrides".
Comments
EVALUATION I think this bug was intruced with the style caching that Richard intrduced in b26 bug 6690263. In the NimbusDefaults method getStyle() it needs to look for "Nimbus.Overrides.InheritDefaults" as well as ���Nimbus.Overrides".
