Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

The GTK L&F has a few known issues and is not enabled by default. Please
see bug #183139.

You might try adding those properties to either
/etc/java-7-openjdk/swing.properties
/etc/java-8-openjdk/swing.properties, one per line without the "-D", as
in:

awt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on
swing.aatext=true
swing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel
swing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel

Be aware that the application you are trying to run might override those
settings on its own, if so that would require you to edit the
application configuration files.

Title:
  Native Look and Feel for Swing does not work

Status in openjdk-7 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in openjdk-8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Openjdk-7 and openjdk-8 do not enable native look and feel by default. But they support it. Apps use ugly blue theme, even if the code contains "UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());"
  I've tried Xubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu Mate 16.04 - apps look ugly. (for example logisim)

  To get native LAF you need to use these arguments: _JAVA_OPTIONS 
  -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel
