Hello I have an interface which user can change the look and feel . Here is the interface:

http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=579250themesApp.jpg

and the code of each button:

//The JDesktop Frame contains all the Internal Frames
JDesktop p = new JDesktop();
try {
            UIManager.setLookAndFeel( new javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel());

        SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(p);
        } catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(paramApparence.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }

For each button I change only the look and feel(Metal/Nimbus,etc)

When I click on the button to change the look and feel it gives me:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

Here is the complete stack trace:

by default required JFrame.pack(), instead of another woodoos as is setVisible(false) and then true, or to change DecorationsType for JFrame
