Is retina display still an issue in 2014a?

I stopped updating my version of Matlab at R2013a due to the issue with fonts not rendering clearly on a MacBook Pro with Retina Display. Anyone know if this is still an issue in the R2014a pre-release?

I also stopped updating, Matlab text is really hard to read on those post-2013a versions. I reported this bug already for 2013b beta and 2014a beta, but still no solution (for >1 year and counting...)

This issue has not been fixed. The editor, command line and figures render in low resolution in the R2014a pre-release.

Maybe the following codes can solve this problem.
$cd /Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app/sys/java/jre/maci64
$mv jre/ jre.orig
$ln -s /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/ jre
Good luck!

Go to /Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app/sys/java/jre/maci64 remove the link and rename jre.org back to jre

Thanks for the solution above, but with the latest Java update, my help/documentation for R2014a has stopped working and MATLAB is forced to close. I tried to undo the codes as suggested, but then MATLAB ceased to work. Does anyone know how to set MATLAB to a specific Java version (since it worked fine on earlier Java versions)? Thanks for any comments on this!
