Note: "Splash Screen (not to be confused with the Welcome Screen)"
Correct, the splash screen does not use SVG. It achieves HiDPI support by loading a double-sized PNG (exported from Illustrator) and scaling it down to the desired logical coordinates. The JRE-level "-splash" mechanism is currently not used, because it does not work well on either MacOS (shows just a grey box for most of the time) or Windows (does not work with HiDPI graphics, despite being supposed to). See https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/1246 . The welcome screen, on the other hand, could use SVG if needed. That one is just a regular TopComponent. -- Eirik -----Original Message----- From: Jaroslav Tulach <jaroslav.tul...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, January 13, 2020 4:31 AM To: dev <dev@netbeans.apache.org> Subject: Re: NetBeans Logo on the Welcome Screen Splash screen is loaded too early to benefit from the SVG support provided by modules. The module system gets initialized way later when the splash is already visible. Moreover the splash screen can also be displayed by JDK itself and I doubt there is any support for SVG in the JDK's AWT splash implementation. Possibly you could have a PNG and SVG version and re-render the splash.png from SVG on first start when it gets copied into caches. -jt PS: There used to be a time when the installers executed headless copy of NetBeans behind the scene to generate caches. In such situation even the first start would have properly scaled splash.png... so 28. 12. 2019 v 6:39 odesÃlatel Eirik Bakke <eba...@ultorg.com> napsal: > I added the graphics used for the current Splash Screen (not to be > confused with the Welcome Screen) as new attachments to > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-378 .
