I'm using IntelliJ IDEA on Arch Linux with KDE. OpenJDK version is 1.7.0_40.
Whole IDE fonts (includes code editor) are rendered without any antialiasing and font smoothing. I set in idea.properties
file idea.use.default.antialiasing.in.editor
to true
, and added in _JAVA_OPTIONS
variable -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true
without any effect.
What else I can try to enable font smoothing?
Take a look here. I remember having the same problem when running IDEA, but after adding the line mentioned in the wiki the problem goes away.
export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=setting'
where setting
may be
off
or false
or default
