Linux users (Windows users too?) sometimes experience rendering issues in the mind map view and/or font rendering. The first thing is to check whether you are using openjdk-7, openjdk6 should no longer be used. That means you have to install openjdk-7-jdk (or similar) package and activate it (Debian/Ubuntu: update-java-alternatives). If that doesn't help, below are some hints that have helped a bunch of people.
The Arch Linux wiki has some important hints regarding java (swing) rendering.
Relevant discussions
- artifacts when scrolling horizontally (but the workaround -Dsun.java2d.xrender=True sometimes cause other, more severe, font rendering issues)
- another posting
- http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/freeplane/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=797
Things to try
- from Arch Linux wiki:
- run with -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true (TODO: is aatext=true equivalent to the AA prefs option?)
- install "ttf-ms-fonts" package
- -Dsun.java2d.xrender=True (see thread above)
- change the L&F to metal (probably has no effect)
If you need help, post in the open discussion forum.
