Oracle JDK/JRE Error. Ugly UI in applications.

Hi everyone!
I'm having an issue using the oracle JDK/JRE. When i start some java application with this jdk, for example, netbeans, it looks like this:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/624 … nsUgly.png

The output from archlinux-java status is:

  java-7-jdk
  java-7-jre/jre
  java-7-openjdk
  java-8-jdk (default)
  java-8-jre/jre

Any ideas?

Re: Oracle JDK/JRE Error. Ugly UI in applications.

Try the following:
export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true'
Then run your program.   Edit: from the same shell in which you set that export
