Tomoko Uchida commented on LUCENE-8789:
---------------------------------------
Hi [~rcmuir],
I'm not an expert but seems like Java 11 Swing/AWT still has some issues with
high DPI graphics. As Uwe noted in the original Luke issue LUCENE-2562, even
with Java 11, glitches are remained on Windows. Although the problems do not
prevent users from using Luke, the look&feel library solves the glitches and
provide better user experience (and also this will reduce GUI developers'
burden.)
Actually with Java 8 on Windows/Linux high DPI graphics, Luke and all of Swing
apps are no use..., though you can launch it (if you are interested in details
please see [http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/263]). I have noted about it to the
branch_8x's Lucene system requirements in this commit:

> JGoodies Looks ([http://www.jgoodies.com/freeware/libraries/looks/]) is a
> Swing look&feel library for Windows platform.
> The main advantage of the library is (quoted from their home page):
> {quote}Our Windows look&feel focuses on a precise emulation on Windows XP,
> Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, and now Windows 10 in the following areas: menus, icons,
> colors, borders, fonts, font sizes, insets, and widget dimensions. It honors
> the screen resolution (low vs. high dpi) to adjust sizes, insets, and widget
> dimensions.
> {quote}
> The library works fine on Java11, relatively light weight (400KB), has no
> other external dependencies, and distributed under 2-Clause BSD License (see:
> [http://www.jgoodies.com/downloads/libraries/]).
>
> Actually, I forgot to include this when migrating Luke from the GitHub repo
> to Lucene project... :)
