Swingx causes exception on Windows 10

[jackrusher]

Thanks for Seesaw! It has saved me considerable pain in making quick desktop GUIs. It looks like the swingx initializer causes an exception on Windows 10 because of a hack to to tell the L&F manager to use a particular font:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: java.awt.Font[family=Segoe UI,name=Segoe UI,style=plain,size=12] must be a UIResource
[...]
	at org.jdesktop.swingx.JXHeader.<clinit>(JXHeader.java:87)
	... 56 common frames omitted

I suspect, but have not verified, that updating to a later version of swingx (seesaw is currently using 1.6, but there's a 1.6.2 available) might fix this problem.

@jackrusher you can use fork of seesaw: https://github.com/ertugrulcetin/seesaw I've updated all deps, this might solve your problem

Thanks, @ertugrulcetin. I worked around it and shipped the project I was working on. That said, I'm quite interested in seeing Seesaw move to Commons, receive some love, and receive these updates. :)
