Description hossmf 2016-09-07 18:31:12 UTC

Product Version = NetBeans IDE 8.1 (Build 201510222201)
Operating System = Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0_92
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.92-b14

Reproducibility: Happens every time

I have a UHD display and NetBeans is not at all compatible with it. Every written text and button is so small and hard to read specially the output tab.

EXPECTED:
  everything should be as large as any normal display would show

Always appear on 8.2.

Could be partially solved with a manifest file (http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-fix-apps-that-look-small-on-high-dpi-and-high-resolution-displays/)

But the text is blurry so the use of the application is very tiring ;)
