[BlackArch/BurpSuite Community] How to set -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on for the launcher?

gillouche | Last updated: Jun 24, 2022 05:10PM UTC

Hello, my JAVA GUI applications have ugly fonts without this setting. In my ~/.zshrc, I added the following line: export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on' This works when BurpSuite is launched from a terminal but when I use the desktop launcher, this configuration is not picked up. I tried to update the launcher to start this command when clicked on it: burpsuite -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on But it doesn't work. I can still start burpsuite from the terminal to have a working product so that's not a big problem but I'd like to have the possibility to start it with the launcher. Any idea? Thanks!

Hi, You can specify additional options by adding these to a user.vmoptions file within your installation directory - these should then be picked up when you launch Burp.
