Description

Netbeans doesn't seem to handle per-monitor dpi scaling properly. You can see the icon pixelated and the tab bar text is cut off. I'm running 3 monitors, the main one on 125%, the other on 100% scaling. When I drag Netbeans to Monitor 3 at 100% scaling it looks correct. But main one is wrong.

 

 

I have this setting enabled to ensure scaling is done based on main monitor:

 

this doesn't make a difference.
