Make sure that you are using JDK 11+ when running NetBeans. The latest JDK is recommended as the HiDPI support is becoming better over the time. Honestly, I'd just use my display as 1080p. I've did the same with my 2nd generation GalagoPro (that came with a 3K display). I've never regretted tha

Don, I just connected my Dell XPS 13 to an old monitor, made the adjustments in Ubuntu, and now, I can see the netbeans perfectly running. Still searching for a way to configure netbeans so I can use it with the laptop alone. Thanks for your help. Klerman

I feel your pain.  When I got my XPS-13 it had Ubuntu 16 installed.  It has since been upgraded to 18. The XPS-13 by itself is good for taking to meetings (when they were in-person).  When I use Netbeans (or anything with a largish display pattern) I use the external monitor and a USB keyboard/

Just do a: mkdir $HOME/snap/netbeans/common/data/12.0/etc cp /snap/netbeans/current/netbeans/etc/netbeans.conf $HOME/snap/netbeans/common/data/12.0/etc/ You would be able to customize the NetBeans config at: $HOME/snap/netbeans/common/data/12.0/etc/netbeans.conf On 9/6/20 10:38 PM, Klerma

Hello, I recently changed to this Dell XPS 13 which has a high resolution monitor and Ubuntu 20.04. My settings are 3840X2160, 300%. I installed NetBeans 12.0 and to my surprise, it's practically unusable in this machine, as it's unable to adapt itself to these scales and the resolutions. I Googled
