Eirik Bakke commented on NETBEANS-1582:
---------------------------------------
Beware of discussions to change the default LAF on Linux:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1344 . (This issue relates to
whichever LAF is the default on Linux.)
> HiDPI icons for window system icons on default Linux LAF
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-1582
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1582
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Window System
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Eirik Bakke
> Priority: Major
> Labels: HiDPI
>
> To look good on HiDPI displays on Linux, the various icons that are part of
> NetBeans' window system must be made scalable to arbitrary resolutions. This
> includes, for instance, the "X" button that is used to close tabs and the "_"
> button that collapses a sidebar. These icons reside in the tabcontrol and
> openide.awt modules.
> The pull request at [https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/859]
> already did this work for the MacOS and Windows LAFs (see NETBEANS-1260 and
> NETBEANS-1238, respectively). Using the same approach, it should now be
> relatively easy to do the same on Linux. Or more specifically, whichever LAF
> is the default on, say, Ubuntu (I'm not sure myself).
> This issue does _not_ cover the equivalent work on the Darcula plugin; that
> would be a separate effort (see
> [https://github.com/Revivius/nb-darcula/issues/160] ).
> (The author of the PR above does not have a Linux machine handily available,
> and so only did the work for Windows and MacOS. Note that these icons are
> more or less the only ones that are different from one LAF to another.)
