Input box padding/clipping error on IDEA 2017.x

Answered

Ever since upgrading to IDEA 2017, I've had padding/clipping issues in some types of input boxes (see screenshots). In some it's so bad that 30-50% of the line gets sawed off, in others it's just a few pixels missing at the bottom, which still sometimes makes it hard to distinguish i from j... It's annoying enough that I've stayed on 2016.3 for now. 2017.2 did not solve this issue for me.

I'm running IDEA on Fedora 25. However, a colleague that also runs F25 does not have the issue. I tried removing my ~/.IntelliJIdea2017.1/ folder to see if it was an old settings issue, but that sadly did not fix anything. Also tried messing around with different fonts/sizes without much luck. Maybe I just haven't found the correct font setting.

 

Any suggestions on what else to try or tweak to resolve this?

Wow, that was quick. Thanks! Works perfectly with the bundled runtime. (for some reason, I had set IDEA_JDK to Sun/Oracle JDK_HOME in my .bash_profile)
