Changeing the DPI setting, up or down, affects all apps I use rather than just the osd for image operations/cropping on DarkTable. It also would take precious real-estate from image display. A configurable scaling factor in DarkTable, ~/.config/darktable.gtkrc, is *much* preferred. > > http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/DarkTable_DarkRoom_Screen.jpg > > http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/DarkTable_LightTable_Screen1.jpg > > http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/DarkTable_Preferences_Screen3.jpg > > Thanks. > > > > PS: We are talking about the on-canvas crop&rotate controls? > > > > Yes > > > > I will try to get a screenshot of them but it is somewhat illusive :^) tks for your, and the many other contributors efforts. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
