Characters are not displayed properly while setting up IntelliJ - java

When I was installing IDEA, the texts in the installer and later in the setup window weren't displayed properly, see pictures below.
Im on Windows 10. I do not have the standard Windows font, I set it to Bahnschrift, could this be the issue? I tried reinstalling, but it didn't help
The code is displaying normally

Apache NetBeans 12.6 not opening on windows 10

I'm having an issue with NetBeans, on the first few startups everything works fine, and I even get some projects finished, but then suddenly Netbeans loads but doesn't open, and if I try to reopen it all I get is a minimized menu bar (as if you took the menu bar on the top right of your screen and only displayed that). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application, changing the JDK being used, and failed at editing a config file which I saw suggested on some other threads, this happens independent of the version installed or the JDK used. I'm really lost because I don't even get an error message.

Eclipse installer not showing any packages

When trying to install eclipse, when I run the installer I just get a blank box with no packages to select. Image Link
Any idea on how I could fix it, I have my java environment variable and java_home both set to the \bin location for both my java installations. The versions of java I currently am using are jdk 8 and I got jdk 16 to see if that might fix the issue but it didn't. As well, there weren't any errors or anything it just shows the empty box and shows that there's an update but I'm not sure what it's trying to update. Any idea how I could fix it?
Solution that worked for me:
Ok so after some fiddling around I had to search "eclipse" in the search all bar in windows. Then after some scrolling I was able to find the file "eclipse-isnt.exe" and after running that it showed the stuff to download and solved my problem. The "eclipse-isnt.exe" ended up being located in "C:/Users/(user)/AppData/Local/Temp/(random temp file)/eclipse-inst.exe".
Hope this helps out
Also running the file as administrator worked

Fonts installed in Windows not shown in SceneBuilder

I'm just starting with SceneBuilder and JavaFX. I've opened a test project and am checking out SceneBuilder. Added Label to the AnchorPane and wanted to change the font of the text. But I don't see any fonts installed in my system by me. I've already had some fonts installed in Windows before (Next Art, Montserrat, Bebas Neue). Neither of them is shown in SceneBuilder. I didn't find any helpful information on this problem. I've seen youtube videos where people choose their custom fonts directly from SceneBuilder. Am I doing something wrong?
P.S.: I know that I could simply write some code and integrate any font using CSS for example. But yet want to do it in SceneBuilder.
(I use Java SDK v.14.0.2, JavaFX v.11.0.2 and SceneBuilder v.11.0.0)
Finally, I managed to make it work properly. Yet the answer was in an unanswered question here on the site :D.
Well, the reason why SceneBuilder doesn't see my custom fonts is that they weren't installed for all users.
Windows 10 stores your custom fonts in this folder:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts
But the system does it if you simply open the font and click "Install" button or drag-and-drop it to Start>Settings>Personalization>Fonts or C:\Windows\Fonts folder.
To make your fonts visible in SceneBuilder on Windows 10
If you already had them installed in your system:
backup your font/fonts from C:\Windows\Fonts folder
delete it/them from there (otherwise fonts will be doubled later)
Select your custom font/fonts
Right-click it/them and choose Install for all users option (but not Install)
Relaunch your IDE and SceneBuilder.
Now you should be able to choose your custom fonts directly from SceneBuilder.
That helped me, thanks to the user d3f4lt.

RCP application splash screen on Linuxes

I have a working RCP application which was moved from eclipse 4.7 to 4.11 target platforms. The splash screen of the application is not rendered properly on Linuxes (I have tried Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 24). Not a single line changed in the code, so there is obviously something in the runtime which I need to address. Have no idea where to even start looking at this. It appears that the layout rendering is not respected properly.
Here is how the splash screen looks with Eclipse 4.7 Oxygen runtime:
And this is what I get with Eclipse 11 runtime. Seem like some CSS issues but this is an old code base, there are no CSS tricks. Pretty basic swt grid layout, same code:
On the latest Ubuntu (19) it looks even weirder, the radio buttons and check boxes are not painted properly when selected:
I don't see this issue neither on Windows nor on MacOS.
Only on Linuxes. Any secret behind this?

Android SDK eclipse installation not working properly

When I install the android SDK from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
my file at the time was like adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140624.zip. When I ran it, the eclipse looked very different. The loading screen showed Juno instead of the android loading screen. The icon on the bottom task toolbar (windows 7) was a unknown program icon and not the eclipse icon. When it opened, it looks like this image below.
If I try to create a new android activity file, after I click finish, I expect the file to be created, but nothing happens. Also if I go to the xml layout file and go to the gui explorer, I get a bunch of errors saying some widgets didn't load. And then it doesn't show the preview.
Some things work like intellisense and being able to run app on phone.
Im not sure if this has to do with corrupted preferences, so I deleted the files in here
Eclipse Workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime, but it didn't help.
Does anyone know whats wrong and how to fix it?
Thanks.
I also installed the same version adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140624.zip last week. It worked fine for the most part. The different icon and splash screen for Eclipse is to be expected. There were some oddities, like the link to SDK manager still pointed to my previous ADT installation.
