Hi,
yes, that ENV variable is expected to be set when running any JAVA
application under sway. AFAIK recent JDKs have native wayland support,
but I am not sure how far.
I would just ask, then, to make it a bit cleearer in the README: it
mentions that non-reparenting window manages “will only display empty gray
windows”; it does not match my experience (I got a non-resizing small text
window instead of using the full available space). But I think that just
adding this note would be enough to considering this bug dealt with.
This is rather a wayland issue than a arduino-ide specific issue,
nevertheless we can improve that.
best,
