Eirik Bakke edited comment on NETBEANS-765 at 8/1/18 12:18 AM: --------------------------------------------------------------- I've now used NetBeans for about three weeks on a Windows-based HiDPI screen (2560x1440, tried with the OS-level scaling setting set to both 150% and 200%). This actually works quite well! There are plenty of small bugs, especially when connecting and disconnecting an external non-HiDPI monitor, or when moving windows between HiDPI and non-HiDPI screens, but I could usually figure out ways to work around these. It's essential to run the IDE on a recent JDK version, though. I used OpenJDK 10.0.0.1+9. I also tried to use Java 8; in the latter case NetBeans became much less usable, with a mix of tiny and regular-sized controls, controls that don't fit in their dialog box, and such. I also observed that even even the latest version of Microsoft Office, which we should expect to be the "gold standard" of Windows applications, also has a few similar HiDPI-related bugs. was (Author: ebakke): I've now used NetBeans for about three weeks on a Windows-based HiDPI screen (2560x1440, tried with the OS-level scaling setting set to both 150% and 200%).
