Highlighting set to use bold font

When Go To dialog match highlighting is configured to use bold font, the highlighting doesn't work, there is no bolding. This may be due to the font I use (Lucida Console). Bolding however works with the same font in the editor and in the code completion popup, for example.
Comment 1 Tomas Zezula 2016-06-22 10:10:10 UTC 
May be fixed as I've replaced the custom NetBeans HtmlRenderer by a standard
JLabel due to other problems, see issue #256872.
However bold font depends on system. How it interprets BOLD fonts, if there is
a BOLD version of a font used by JList. The Go To Panel just marks the matched part as bold using <b>%s</b> pattern in JLabel, for example:

<html><nobr><b>C</b>opy<b>O</b>n<b>W</b>rite<b>A</b>rray<b>L</b>ist</nobr>

If it will not work even with a standard JLabel I cannot do more.
