Eirik Bakke updated NETBEANS-1582:
----------------------------------
Description:
To look good on HiDPI displays on Linux, the various icons that are part of
NetBeans' window system must be made scalable to arbitrary resolutions. This
includes, for instance, the "X" button that is used to close tabs and the "_"
button that collapses a sidebar. These icons reside in the tabcontrol and
openide.awt modules.
The pull request at [https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/859]
already did this work for the MacOS and Windows LAFs (see NETBEANS-1260 and
NETBEANS-1238, respectively). Using the same approach, it should now be
relatively easy to do the same on Linux. Or more specifically, whichever LAF is
the default on, say, Ubuntu (I'm not sure myself).
This issue does _not_ cover the equivalent work on the Darcula plugin; that
would be a separate effort (see
[https://github.com/Revivius/nb-darcula/issues/160] ).
(The author of the PR above does not have a Linux machine handily available,
and so only did the work for Windows and MacOS. Note that these icons are more
or less the only ones that are different from one LAF to another.)
