I don't know how it is about lower resolution screens. I am using #292 , BUT the problems are in the last version here, too.

  1. Things like the letter g: The text in the picture are package names starting with gui.settings

2. The text and the bottom of the window.

@BlockyTheDev did you fix the resolution issue?
when I was under Windows, it look&feel very nice, but now on Linux Ubuntu it looks very weird... all the fonts/labels seem o render 200 or 300% larger then it should be...

Sorry for the late answer. The first point was gone for me as soon as I switched from Java 8 to Java >= 17 for the execution of Luyten. The second point still exists for me with newer Java versions. However, I have never used Luyten on Linux/Ubuntu.

I"m using 2K monitor on Linux Ubuntu and I figured out how to make it calm down to normal sizes...
Here is how:
I specifcy this extra -D option and it makes some miracle:

java -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=1.0 -jar ./luyten-0.7.0.jar

of course it'd be nice to somehow embed this option inside luyten jar..

please give it a try on your end, maybe it'll mitigate some of the high res pain :)

Also I"m wondering what specific Java versions >=17 have you successfully tried out?

I tried Java 17 and 21. Both Azul Zulu.

The named startup flag doesn't change much for me in terms of the visual 'bugs' of this issue. Luckily only small visual things on my side.

OK, great!
in my case it lowered down the scale visual effect like 2..3 times smaller (especially in the left-hand tree view)
