Is this a Windows hi-res ("retina") display?
I've found some online threads saying that Java Swing doesn't work well on Windows hi-res displays. I've not yet found a fix.

Not sure what happened, but every time I download JES the entire box is small and hard to view. Then if I maximize the window it becomes almost impossible to see anything. I don't know if it's a matter of resolution or what, but apparently it only has happened to me.

Sorry it took so long long to respond! Anyway, when I don't maximize it, jes looks like But when I maximize it, it gets even smaller! As for what you're asking, I'm not sure what that is entirely.
I have several students running in to this issue now. The JES application shows up tiny on their screen. They are running Windows 10. Any thoughts?
If you're on windows, I did find a workaround for this issue:
find the jre-win32\bin
folder under JES,
for most people this should be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\JES\dependencies\jre-win32\bin
right click on java.exe
and click on properties
click on the compatibility tab at the top, and then click on Change high DPI settings should look something like this:
check the box under "high DPI scaling override", and change the drop down from 'application' to 'system' should look like this:
hit 'OK', hit 'APPLY', and restart JES
Thank you!
