Problems with Java versions, and running a CodeName project.

I am running Netbeans 9 on Java 8 64 bit. I am running a Windows 10 64 bit Home Edition pc. -Is there an easier way to alter the version of Java Netbeans 9 uses to build and run projects without altering C:\Program Files\Netbeans\etc\netbeans.conf every single time? -I am having problems with

Ah, yes. It's just the text that gets sharper, not the icons. Making the icons sharp would be a bigger project--someone would have to hire an icon designer to redraw several thousand icons--or a few hundred of the most commonly seen ones--in a vector format. (Even in the latest Microsoft Office

2018-08-03 Thread Andreas Hauffe
Hi, thanks for the fast reply. But this propery does not change the image quality. The buttons have the same (physical) size on screen as they have on a non-hidpi display. In result the default 32x32 icons/images are upscaled, which is clearly visible. In my case the os scaling (windows)

I'm using NetBeans with JDK 10.0.1 with a HiDPI screen on Windows 10, and everything works great. But I think you have to tell Windows to let the application handle scaling itself. Create a shortcut to netbeans64.exe, then open the properties for the shortcut. Then go to the Compatibility tab->

The owner is Oracle. And the JSR for BeansBinding is dead. And that is not my point — my point is that any plugin using that JAR needs to be rewritten to not use it. Gj On Friday, August 3, 2018, Boris Heithecker wrote: > Hi, > does anybody know who's the owner of org.jdesktop.beansbinding? W

I'm looking to confirm that if a NetBeans RCP starts up and reviews the module updates that were previously downloaded by "checks for updates", that it will over-ride the same modules that were included in the original install ONLY if they are newer and have a higher specification value? If they

So it appears that in this case there exists a one-off reason for the incompatibility. As a heavy user of QuickOpener I'd need a solution that makes it work. It did so in the RC1. That suggests I could just use the or.opendesktop jar from the RC1 and add it to Netbeans. 9.0. Is there anything

And the solution is to get hold of the owners of the plugins that do not work with 9.0 and ask them/work with them to make them compatible with 9.0. Gj On Fri, Aug 3, 2018 at 9:57 AM, Geertjan Wielenga < geertjan.wiele...@googlemail.com> wrote: > The problems are a bit more complex than how you

The problems are a bit more complex than how you describe them, in the case of Apache NetBeans. Take for example 'org.jdesktop.beansbinding'. This is a library that has been part of NetBeans for many years. And it's been used by a variety of plugins as well, such as some of those you seem to be t
