[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-1582) HiDPI icons for window system
icons on default Linux LAF
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1582?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16685963#comment-16685963 ]
Eirik Bakke commented on NETBEANS-1582:
---------------------------------------
Beware of discussions to change the default LAF on Linux: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1344 . (This issue relates to whichever LAF is the default on Linux.)
> HiDPI icons for window system icons on default Linux LAF
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: NETBEANS-1582
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1582
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Window System
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Eirik Bakke
> Priority: Major
> Labels: HiDPI
>
> To look good on HiDPI displays on Linux, the various icons that are part of NetBeans' window system must be made scalable to arbitrary resolutions. This includes, for instance, the "X" button that is used to close tabs and the "_" button that collapses a sidebar. These icons reside in the tabcontrol and openide.awt modules.
> The pull request at [https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/859] already did this work for the MacOS and Windows LAFs (see NETBEANS-1260 and NETBEANS-1238, respectively). Using the same approach, it should now be relatively easy to do the same on Linux. Or more specifically, whichever LAF is the default on, say, Ubuntu (I'm not sure myself).
> This issue does _not_ cover the equivalent work on the Darcula plugin; that would be a separate effort (see [https://github.com/Revivius/nb-darcula/issues/160] ).
> (The author of the PR above does not have a Linux machine handily available, and so only did the work for Windows and MacOS. Note that these icons are more or less the only ones that are different from one LAF to another.)
