Netbeans 8 on 4k displays

Running Windows 8 (or 8.1) on a 4k display is pretty sweet once you get your settings right. Even the Metro apps run good on a 4k display.

The problem here is the 3rd party apps like Netbeans 8. They don't show right because of scaling issues. Fortunately is can be easily fixed by doing a bit of editing a text file.

In order for Netbeans 8 to display right in 4k resolution displays on Windows 8 you have to:

1. Open for edit netbeans.conf file. It should be located at c:\Program Files\Netbeans 8.0\etc folder 
2. Change -J-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware=true to -J-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware=false

And we should be set.
