I'm making a 3D application in JavaFX. I added a 2D text to the scene and got up close with the camera. The effects are not very good:



This is Ubuntu, size 20, anything below 10 is completely unreadable. It only looks fine, when really far away.

I tried setting different font smoothing types, scaling the node. Nothing works well.
How can I mitigate this? The expectation is that the text looks smooth, no matter how close you get to it and no matter what size font it is.

Maybe you are running into:
RT-38948 [Mac, Retina] SubScene contents are blurry
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-38948

Which is fixed in Java 8u40.

Though that issue was probably only Mac specific.
If you still have a Unix specific issue with Java 8u40, create an MCVE and log it with a bug report and environment details in the JavaFX issue tracker.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
