Java Application and UI (colors, fonts, etc.)

Support AUR
1

I have some issues with an java application.
Parts of the Application are invisible… for example in the following image:

  • the purple rectangle contain “checkboxes”, the Blue one is a marked entry…the font color become white and is nearly unreadable in front of the light background-color.

Question: How can I adjust the color / ui settings of an Java Application in Linux.

It depends on what is used for theming the application:

  • If it uses a GTK or Qt theming toolkit, you should be able to use your system them settings.
  • If it uses Swing, see: Java - ArchWiki
  • If it includes a theming configuration, you’ll likely need to use it.
  • If none of the above, you likely can’t. (I haven’t found JVM arguments that would allow to set theming configuration.)

How can I figure out which one is used?
It’s this package here: GitHub - Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools: A simple tool for managing Xiaomi devices on desktop using ADB and Fastboot

Check the source.
Ask the devs.
Open an issue in their bug tracker.

unfortunately none of your suggestions work. So it seems to be your last option :cold_sweat:
And as this repository is archived, there is no way to fill an issue :frowning:
Thanks anyway for helping hands.

You could try :man_rowing_boat: !

  • If one of the 3 possibilities works, you will succeed :+1:
  • If none work, you have tried what is possible :man_shrugging:

I would try 3 (if possible), then 2, then 1

You can also try a different java version (>= 11)

Try to run java application in terminal:

KDE_FULL_SESSION= XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP= DESKTOP_SESSION= java [application name]

See if it works?

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately didn’t work.
even changing the java Version like @andreas85 suggested, didn’t work.
