    Description

       
      In the latest versions of Netbeans I have been able to verify that the Netbeans IDE is rescaled according to the latent configuration in Windows 10 (dpi); this new behavior is fine and improves the development environment. However it is also a problem as it also visually rescales the GUIs in the debugging process; i'm using Maven to compile and execute the program.
      In my case, having a GUI adapted to the real size of my monitor screen is important. I have tried to solve this problem by parameterizing the java with commands like "-Dsun.java2d.uiScale = 1.0" or by disabling the windows rescaling option that exists in the "java.exe" and "javaw.exe" properties but this does not work for NetBeans. It also doesn't work to change the Netbeans setting with the parameter "-J-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware = true".
       
      It would be interesting to have a clear and functional way to avoid rescaling windows to facilitate the visual design of the GUIs.
