When using Netbeans 6.1RC2 on Mac OS X 10.5.2 the advanced Editor Setting for text antialiasing is not respected. To produce the problem: 1) Preferences -> Fonts & Colors -> Advanced Options -> Editor Settings -> Uncheck Text AntiAliasing 2) Highlight the text with mouse or 'apple-A', text becomes aliased 3) Switch windows, i.e., select the Start Page and then go back to the file you were editing, font is again anti aliased I have tried passing various settings to the VM such as: "./netbeans -J-Dapple.awt.textantialiasing=off". Nothing seems to work. I have also tried installing Java 6 preview and overrode the default jdk home option to point at version 1.6, the behavior is the same. If more information than given below is required please email spmacdonald at shaw dot ca Thank you, Scott MacDonald Information: $ java -version java version "1.5.0_13" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05-237) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_13-119, mixed mode, sharing) $ uname -a Darwin tinman.local 9.2.2 Darwin Kernel Version 9.2.2: Tue Mar 4 21:17:34 PST 2008; root:xnu-1228.4.31~1/RELEASE_I386 i386
