Is it possible to change the look and feel of Eclipse. I tried to add
this param to Eclipse but does not work. Is it because Eclipse is using
SWT. If so how can I change the IDE..
-vmargs Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.motif.MotifLookAnd Feel

Eclipse does not use Swing at all, which is why your system property has
not effect.
There are 2 look and feels shipped with Eclipse (see Preferences |
General | Appearance). I remember seeing a third-party alternate, I
think somewhere on http://www.eclipse-plugins.info
Note that you sometimes have to restart Eclipse to see the complete
effect of changing the Presentation Style preferences.
HTH,
