+### (Known) Java nonreparenting WM issue
+Certain IDEs don't display correctly unless an environmental variable for Java AWT
+indicates that the WM is nonreparenting.
+
+For some Java AWT-based IDEs, such as Xilinx Vivado and Microchip MPLAB X, the
+following environment variable needs to be set before running the IDE or dwl:
+
+ export _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1
+
## Replacements for X applications
