UI Sample.

On my Dell XPS 13 (early 2015 model) with a 4K screen (HiDPI/Retina), the UI isn't correctly rendered. Everything is scaled down to half of the right dimensions.

Reassigned for further evaluation. What JDK do you use?
Comment 2 nmaggioni 2015-10-15 15:37:54 UTC 
I'm using Oracle's JDK 8.

Same deal on my machine (Asus):
Display: 3840x2160
OS: ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit)

Are hidpi, java and linux a bad match?


Appearantly not only Linux is suffering from the same issue, see also https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252452
