Is the text such small only in loading dialog or also in the rest of the installer? Hello, only in this single dialog. Fonts in the rest of installer are OK. (In reply to stwr from comment #2) > Hello, only in this single dialog. Fonts in the rest of installer are OK. Thanks, that's really minor issue - decreasing priority to P4. I am having the same issue but in all of the IDE and in the source files I am editing in the IDE. The strange thing is, if I go to the systems Display Settings and change the "Size of the text, apps and other items" from 125% (was what was set when the machine booted for the first time) to 150% (making things bigger), after I log out and then log in the fonts in Netbeans are smaller than before. I can only get an increase in size if I set it to 100%. I am also using a second monitor. The laptop monitor is 1920x1080 and the second monitor is 1680x1050.

Very tiny fonts in windows10
I found a fix. I added fontSize parameter as shown below netbeans_default_options="-J-client -J-Xss2m -J-Xms32m -J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true -J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -J-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware=true -J-Dsun.zip.disableMemoryMapping=true -J-Dswing.aatext=true --fontsize 25" (In reply to deenfirdoush from comment #6) > I found a fix.

Where/how did you add that code snip? (I am beginner with NB IDE ) I have Net Beans IDE 8.1 |
