> Fix various Windows LAF bugs on HiDPI screens
> ---------------------------------------------

> Key: NETBEANS-3592
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3592
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Other
> Affects Versions: 11.1
> Environment: Windows with HiDPI screens
> Reporter: Eirik Bakke
> Priority: Major
> Labels: HiDPI, pull-request-available
> Attachments: Problem 1, incorrect font size.png, Problem 2, OS
> controls wrong size (after patch).png, Problem 2, OS controls wrong size
> (before patch).png, Problem 3, uneven text component borders.png,
> WindowsSwingMultiMonitorTest.png
>
>
> Provide workarounds to various bugs that caused the Windows LAF to be
> unusable on many HiDPI configurations, typically when an external monitor (or
> projector) is involved, or is disconnected or connected.
> 1) In certain configurations, the GUI font size would be either way too large
> or way too small. (I can't remember exactly which configurations caused this,
> but going through the manual test case list below _will_ trigger it several
> times.)
> 2) In multi-monitor configurations that involve one HiDPI screen and one
> regular screen, the size of controls drawn by the OS, such as checkboxes and
> outline expansion handles, will be incorrect unless the HiDPI screen was the
> main display at login. I earlier reported this as a JDK bug at
> https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211715 . (Note that there are a few
> icons which cannot be fixed using the UIDefaults approach taken here, e.g.
> checkmarks in JCheckBoxMenuItem.) In some cases, the LAF would previously end
> up scaling the control images received from the OS using a poor image scaling
> interpolation; the supplied patch improves the scaling quality in these cases.
> 3) On non-integral scaling levels, e.g. 150%, borders around text components
> will be of uneven thickness due to rounding error. This patch fixes that.
> This also happens to JComboBox, but in that case cannot be fixed with a
> simple patch, since that one does not take its border from UIDefaults.
> I will provide a PR with workarounds.
> Below is a manual test plan that I used to test these patches, on Windows 10.
> After each line in the test plan, the patch is confirmed to work. In _most_
> of these cases there is some kind of improvement in behavior from the
> patch--either a corrected control/font size or at least an improvement in
> control icon scaling interpolation quality.
