Hi, same issue here, swing applications are unusable because of the big fonts.
For example running SoapUI-5.4.0 results in too big font screen that makes it unusable. Reading the changset a3cc7e551a48 pointed by Tiago I found a workaround, setting environment variable J2D_UISCALE to 1 makes the trick. So, I added this at the beginning of soapui.sh and now it seems fine: export J2D_UISCALE=1 Regards, Carlos Ruiz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765914 Title: Java windows and fonts are huge running in openjdk-11-jre Status in openjdk-lts package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: If I run a Java application with oracle-java-8 in an X session, the windows and fonts are all normal size. When I run the same application with openjdk-11-jre, everything is scaled up to double size (see attached image, which shows an application on the left running in Java 8 and the same application on the right running in Java 10 (from the package openjdk-11, not openjdk-10 for some reason). My normal screen layout is 1920x1080 with two screens, so the command "xrandr -q | awk -F'current' -F',' 'NR==1 {gsub("( |current)","");print $2}'" shows 1920x2160. One of the screens is 4K, so presumably Java *might* be detecting this and deciding it needs to double everything in size, but this is clearly an error since I'm not even using this mode. If I set the laptop to use a single external 1920x1080 monitor, it makes no difference - the Java applications are still double the size that they should be. There's no problem if I run in a Wayland session - the app windows run at a normal size whether in java 10 or 8.
