Either slow 2D graphics or empty menus
First of all, I am sorry if I am posting the same question a hundredth time, but I could not find it in the forum. Also, I have already tried several configurations with no success.

My problem is:

  • The option
    -Dsun.java2d.opengl
    is set to false; then everything works, but moving furnitures around is damn slow. Each redraw takes about half a second, which makes designing frustrating.
  • -Dsun.java2d.opengl
    is set to true, then the graphics is quick. However, the startup splash and many menus (context menus, the "Open recent" submenu, etc) are empty. If I click within the the menus, it shows that the text is just invisible, but the menu is indeed working. This is quite unuseful.


Setting
SWEETHOME3D_JAVA3D
to 1.5 or 1.6 does not help either; neither does turning
-Dsun.java2d.d2d
on and off.

How can have both, quick graphics and visible text in the menus?

My OS is Manjaro Linux, Java is OpenJDK 1.8.0_222. My GPU is an Intel i915 compatible.
