Most JavaFX apps unusable on Windows 10 (combo boxes bug)

[Guillaume Anctil]

Thanks for looking into this.

Although, I don't believe Intel graphics card have anything to do with this
bug, unlike the reports on Stack Overflow. I tested with both AMD and
Nvidia cards, and the only factor seemed to be if my touchscreen was
plugged in or not on my desktop computer.

Cheers
