Created attachment 125233 [details] Tooltip screenshot NetBeans IDE 7.2/Dev Windows 7, JDK 6u35 running with --fontsize 20 The editor tooltip displayed by CTRL+mouse hover doesn't follow the --fontsize parameter. Also, IMO it should use a sans-serif font. See the attached screenshot - for reference it shows also a regular Swing tooltip with correct font/size. Interestingly, the tooltip is only broken if the IDE is started with the Navigator window NOT displayed. As soon as the Navigator is opened and focus moved back to editor, the tooltip starts to use a correct font/size.
GoToSupport.computeTooltip is in java.editor
