I installed Scilab 2024.1.0 on a new notebook with a HiDPI display (1920x1080). It runs under Linux Mint 22 (Wilma) x86_64. I set up partial scaling to 125%. All other applications (except other "Javas") look properly scaled.
But Scilab do not. I installed the archive from scilab.org, not from the Mint/Ubuntu repository. It looks at least two times too small. Not only the text, the whole GUI: text, buttons, scroll bars, etc. I can barely read the menu. It is impossible to use it. I know that this is a Java issue on Linux but that does not make it any better. As a workaround, I know that you can start Java apps with the option -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=2.0 to work around that issue. This works with Java apps I tested as long as you do not connect a normal DPI screen. *But where do I have to insert that in the Scilab start script?* I have not seen any line where Java was invoked. Do any of you have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.
