This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
See screenshot. Linux w/ Metal L&F, JDK 1.4.2, no theming etc. Note the font for the main text "The IDE must..." - this is supposed to be in a proportional font, which it in fact used to be until very recently. Presumably something in the new winsys changed how some fonts are loaded and this accidentally got switched to a monospaced font. I have seen at least one other dialog have the same problem recently but I can't remember what it is. On the other hand, at least *some* dialogs with textareas with multiline text are using a proper proportional font, e.g. the intro panel to the Ant shortcut wizard.

Jirka, I think you can close this, I fixed it in NbTheme a while ago.
Wow! I'm appreciated with messages like this. Closed as FIXED.
