Bug Description

When running a Java application (Stanford Protege Desktop 5.0.0 - http://protege.stanford.edu/) the user interface displays menus within the main application frame. However, the Settings, Appearance, Behavior, "Show the menus for a windows setting" is set to "In the menu bar." In addition, the font size shown in the Java application is much smaller than that shown in other applications. The Settings, Universal Access, Seeing, "Large Text" setting is On.

I am able to reproduce this behavior with Cytoscape 3.4.0 (http://www.cytoscape.org/) running with Java version 1.8.0_91 as distributed by Ubuntu via the "default-jre" package (openjdk-8-jre).
