Blurry X11 forwarding via MobaXTerm

Question

I have established an ssh connection from Win10 to RedHat machine via MobaXTerm. I have also enabled X11 forwarding, but when I launch eclipse or gedit or anything else the application window looks blurry, i.e. not really crystal sharp as it would look be it run natively. Below is how it looks like when forwarded from a linux machine. Any clue how to make it look more sharp?

Answer 1

right click mobaxterm executable or shortcut

go to compatibility tab

go to high dpi settings

check the box override dpi table

leave dropdown to application

apply

restart mobaxterm

launch the app

Answer 2

I found a similar issue when working with VcXsrv and the solution for that one worked for me in MobaXTerm as well. I'm going to guess that your screen is a high DPI one as it seems like that's where most people seem to have this issue.

Try going to the MobaXTerm executable, right-click it and go to properties. Inside properties, click on the Compatibility tab and then mark the check to disable display scaling on high DPI.
