11 on Linux
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1344?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16650959#comment-16650959 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tested with:
Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE Dev (Build incubator-netbeans-release-345-on-20181002)
Java: 11; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 11+28-Debian-3
Runtime: OpenJDK Runtime Environment 11+28-Debian-3
System: Linux version 4.18.14 running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb)
User directory: /home/alied/.netbeans/10.0
Cache directory: /home/alied/.cache/netbeans/10.0
On Debian testing with XFCE, Xfce-flat style and FlatBird theme.
I'll try to summary my findings here:
Toolbar buttons are too big; even when "Small toolbar icons" is selected:
!toolbar_buttons.png!
Active document tab title background is almost the same colour of the title text; making it unreadable:
!document_tab.png!
Selected item in lists/trees lacks the background in the text part:
!selected_item.png!
Which is even worse in other cases with text-only (believe it or not, here the "Java Application" is selected):
!image-2018-10-15-20-11-07-846.png!
Output Window:
The background does not honour the settings (apparently it's using the system's default background colour).
Selecting a black text makes it unreadable.
!image-2018-10-15-20-16-27-048.png!
Scroll bars are unusable:
!image-2018-10-15-20-19-49-797.png!
Selected text in text boxes is not visibly highlighted (looks like the highlight colour is the same as the background colour)
!image-2018-10-15-20-21-15-737.png!
And this is the about box:

> Well actually Java 11 the defaults Gnome3 on Linux, resulting poor rendering on the default GTK look and feel. Using other Look and feel (Nimbus, Darcula) does not suffer from this issue.
> Forcing to use GTK 2.2 fixes the GTK look and feel.
> To force gnome we need to pass: {{-Djdk.gtk.version=2.2}} to the Java
