Class hierarchy font too small on high resolutions #752

william-vw · 2018-02-03T14:40:50Z

The font size for the class/property hierarchy is too small to read on new Windows laptops (resolution 3840x2160) . Note that the rest of the font sizes look fine. Related issues seem to have been reported (#448 #115) in the past, but this issue seems different since only the class/property hierarchy views are affected. Using the latest Protege version from the download page.

See screenshot below:

Thanks,

William

Thanks for the screen shot @darth-willy . This is very useful!
There have been similar reports on the mailing list that may be related:

We will look into this.

Has anyone tried to run Protege with Java 9 on Windows with high a high-DPI display? Would that solve the problem?

william-vw · 2018-02-05T15:38:57Z

Disclaimer: we're using Protege in a tutorial on ontology engineering and I personally didn't encounter the error. But I think the student indeed had Java 9 installed.

Looks like a problem with OWLCellRenderer. Thank's for the report - very useful.

Hello,
I have the same issue with Protege 5.2., high resolution screen, Windows 10, and Java 8.
I read a lot of information on the Web to solve this problem and it seems the issue could be solved using Java 9 (?) so I would like to test it :
I installed the platform independent version of Protege 5.2
I installed Java 9.
At this step I think I need to adapt the run.bat (in particular to include the path of Java 9) and here I need your help. This is my run.bat content :

setlocal
cd /d %~dp0
C:\Programmes\Java\jre-9.0.4\bin\java -Xmx500M -Xms200M -Xss16M -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,javax/swing/text/GlyphView,getBreakSpot -DentityExpansionLimit=100000000 -Dlogback.configurationFile=conf/logback-win.xml -Dfile.encoding=utf-8 -Dorg.protege.plugin.dir=plugins -classpath bundles/guava.jar;bundles/logback-classic.jar;bundles/logback-core.jar;bundles/slf4j-api.jar;bin/org.apache.felix.main.jar;bin/maven-artifact.jar;bin/protege-launcher.jar org.protege.osgi.framework.Launcher %1

What should be the correct run.bat?

csnyulas · 2018-03-05T17:59:51Z

This looks good to me, @cedricemvista
Does it work?
What do you see in the console under the "Platform" section. Here is a sample, from my machine, of what you should look for:


------------------------------------ Protege ----------------------------------- 
Protege Desktop 
Version 5.2.0, Build  
 
 
----------------------------------- Platform ----------------------------------- 
Java: JVM 1.8.0_40-b26  Memory: 1864M 
Language: en, Country: US 
Framework: Apache Software Foundation (1.7)  
OS: linux (4.13.0-36-generic) 
Processor: x86-64

BTW, are you starting Protege with the batch file?

cedricemvista · 2018-03-06T08:10:36Z

Thank you for your answer. When I click the batch file (run.bat) a shell appears and disappears very quickly so I can't see what is written (I tried to make a screenshot unsuccessfully).

csnyulas · 2018-03-06T08:27:52Z

Try to run the batch file from a command line console.

cedricemvista · 2018-03-06T09:06:30Z

Thanks, this is what I see running the batch file :

a problem appears with my path ?

csnyulas · 2018-03-06T18:34:09Z

Why are you running Protege in MinGW? The idea of the platform independent version is that you can run on any OS, natively, the only thing you need is a JVM. Have you tried to run the run.bat in a Windows command line terminal?

cedricemvista · 2018-03-07T08:09:03Z

Thanks again for your time. I tried to run the run.bat in a Windows command line terminal and I obtained exactly the same result (as the last screenshot).
As you know my issue is that font size is too small so I am trying several solutions to solve this problem. A this step I am trying even the less logical... I use to play with Protégé but it is unusable with my configuration so please, if you have any idea let me know. I would be very grateful.

Can you confirm that if I run Protégé 5.2 with Java 9 and high resolution screen with Windows 10 "normal" font will appear ? many many thanks.

csnyulas · 2018-03-07T17:37:35Z

Unfortunately I don't have a high-DPI display to try this out. I can try to look for one around the department. Any user had the chance to try this out?

cedricemvista · 2018-04-06T12:10:32Z

I fixed the issue thanks to my colleague Melissa:

Find java.exe you installed.

Right click -> Properties
Go to Compatibility tab
Check Override high DPI scaling behavior.
Choose System for "Scaling performed by"

ykazakov · 2018-04-10T13:55:11Z

I don't think Protege will work with Java 9 out of the box. See #732. Does it work on windows?

cedricemvista · 2018-04-10T14:18:04Z

yes it works

ykazakov · 2018-04-10T14:52:59Z

OK. Good to know.

matthewhorridge · 2019-01-15T01:37:05Z

@darth-willy did you solve this problem? If not, I'm just wondering if 5.5.0-beta-8 has any effect on it.

@darth-willy thanks a lot for the update. Waiting for the experience of others in this case.

bututoubaobei · 2019-02-12T21:05:53Z

I have solved the problem by decrease the resolution of my windows 10 (originally it is 38402160, after changed, it is 1600900)

natancox · 2019-03-05T20:10:21Z

I fixed the issue thanks to my colleague Melissa:

Find java.exe you installed.
1. Right click -> Properties

2. Go to Compatibility tab

3. Check Override high DPI scaling behavior.

4. Choose System for "Scaling performed by"

For me it worked with these modifications on Windows 10.

JDK is part of protege in jre/bin <---- to configure the correct JDK
Compatibility tab
Check Override high DPI scaling behavior
Choose "System" or even better "System (enhanced)" <---- to get less blurry results

brutzman · 2019-03-27T21:50:50Z

I was able to fix the problem in Protégé 5.5.0 by inserting
-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware=false

just before
-classpath ...

in file Protege-5.5.0-win\Protege-5.5.0\run.bat

maoringo · 2020-08-15T08:26:29Z

I could not resolve java.exe properties, but I could resolve javaw.exe properties.
Thank you so much.

ajvizedom · 2020-08-29T18:05:22Z

@maoringo's solution also works for me. I also found that overriding high DPI scaling behavior in java.exe properties had no effect, but doing the same in javaw.exe properties did the trick.

maoringo · 2020-08-30T07:36:38Z

@ajvizedom Thank you for your report. I'm happy to help you.

It does not work for me.

I have recently got a high-dpi display and had problems with the current Protege (Desktop) distribution.

When I downloaded the current version for Windows (5.5.0), the window was minuscule.

Using the "trick": right click on .exe -> "Properties" -> tab "Compatibility" -> button "Change high DPI settings" -> check "Override high DPI scaling behaviour" then select "System (enhanced)" solved the problem only partially because some texts in the GUI were unreadable.

On my system I have the latest java installed java version "1.8.0_351": I solved the problem downloading the platform-independent bundle. Now everything looks fine.

I have another problem, though: launching Protege requires about 1 minute and 40 seconds. On my previous PC, less powerful than this but with Windows 10 (Pro), it was much faster (seconds).
