RE: [Netbeans 11.2][JDK 13] Resolution issue

[Eirik Bakke <eb...@ultorg.com>]

When changing scaling settings, you may need to log out and back in of Windows before seeing the changes properly applied. With 100% scaling and logging out and back in, you should get the same appearance as in Java 8 (which simply did not support HiDPI scaling at all).

(There are improvements in this area coming in 11.3, see https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/1777 . See also https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/HiDPI+%28Retina%29+improvements for a complete overview of HiDPI-related issues.)

i mean the UI is blurred. icons are larger and editor font size is also different even i am using the same font in both NB : DejaVu Sans Mono 19.

As you advise i change the Scale and Layout from 150% (recommended on Windows 10) to 100% and it seems a bit better but still not optimal:

This change also affect other apps which icons looks smaller. Hope 11.3 will be better supporting this. Thanks you

Any more details? You might use some HIDPI settings which could result some rescaling. JDK 8 has no HIDPI support, above that JDK has, but the software needs to support that as well. The

HDPI support is gradually added to NetBeans, so some parts can look weird, however there are lot of improvements in 11.3-beta1 if you would like to test that.

Hello,

 My Netbeans 11.2 looks ugly when starting with jdk-13.

Below you can see the the difference between NB 11.2 + jdk-13 (righ) and NB 11.1 jdk-8 (left):

I have the same issue with NB 11.1 + JDK >= 11.

NB 11.2 + JDK 8 works fine

I have the same config for both NB11.1 and 11.2

The issue seems to come with JDK >= 11

Did this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

Hello Eirik, i tried Scale 100% with last 11.3 revision and as you said it
looks exactly the same with Java 8. No huge fonts and so.
But it is a bit annoying because down-scaling to 100% affect other apps
like chrome, office etc...which font are smaller.

I hope there is other fixes coming.

By the way the FLAT LAF is awesome.
