High Resolution Scaling Issues on Linux

Problem

On Linux bundled with Oracle OpenJDK 11, Oxygen XML Editor does not automatically scale high-resolution images when using the system's scaling settings.

Cause

This happens because Java 11 does not detect the system scaling setting for HiDPI displays on Linux operating system.

Solution

In the Oxygen XML Editor installation folder, create a new file named custom_commons.vmoptions. Inside the file, manually add -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=2. This command instructs Java to use 2x (200%) scaling.
