getOperativeSystem

public static int getOperativeSystem()

Returns:

WINDOWS, MAC_OS, LINUX, UNIX, OTHER

getScreenSize

public static java.awt.Rectangle getScreenSize()

Checks the area available in the desktop, excluding the taskbar. In order to do this, an attempt to call sun.java2d.SunGraphicsEnvironment.getUsableBounds() is performed. If this can't be done, the method fallbacks to the default Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize(), although such method doesn't exclude the taskbar area.

Returns:

A Rectangle with the usable area for the notifications.

isTranslucencySupported

public static boolean isTranslucencySupported()

Checks if the translucency effect is supported. Java 6 does not support this. Only Java 7 and higher VMs might do, depending of the Graohics Environment and OS.

Returns:

true if translucency is supported, false otherwise.

getBackgroundCap

public static java.awt.Image getBackgroundCap(java.awt.Rectangle bounds)

Creates a background for a fake effect of translucency.

Parameters:

bounds - The area to capture.

Returns:

A BufferedImage with the area behind the JDialog.
