The issue I had with GTK on java 10 on Ubuntu was that it had wierd
behaviour for hidpi screens. If I used the UI Scaling property to match the
os I would get images all scaled correctly but fonts would be twice the
size. If I set the UI Scaling property to 1 the font would now look nice
but the images would be far too small.

I guess GTK takes the font size from the OS which already takes scaling in
to consideration so it is out of sync with java when you ask it to
compensate.
