Description
GDK_SCALE=1 java -cp apps/toys/Hello/src/main/java hello.HelloRectangle produces scale1.png

GDK_SCALE=2 java -cp apps/toys/Hello/src/main/java hello.HelloRectangle produces scale2.png

same on Ubuntu 15.10 but Ubuntu 14.04 is o.k.
Maybe that is because my Ubuntu 15.10/16.04 are VMs, while 14.04 is a normal OS (Intel CPU integrated Haswell video)

Waiting to hear back from the submitter if this is still reproducible. Please reopen it if it is, or comment that it was fixed by an earlier bug fix if it is now working...

This could potentially be a dup of JDK-8159892, but the window was not black in those examples. Still the fix for JDK-8159892 could have had an impact on this issue as well. Can you run it with the fix for JDK-8159892? The fix is in the open jfx 9 repos, but it hasn't appeared in a 9-preview build yet unless you build your own copy of JFX. We'll update JDK-8159892 when we know what public build the fix appears in...

Thank you. So this is likely a GTK 3 related bug in glass.

[~ssadetsky] Can you run with "-Djdk.gtk.verbose=true" so we can see whether it is using GTK2 or GTK3?
