Yes, I know this option. Usually however I am using the "Best for Display" setting, because the "More Space" turns into rather small fonts & user interfaces. As a workaround I could switch to this option when using darktable. >So maybe the issues I saw and reported then and deemed solved in the >meantime are still present when using default retina res? > The effect I describe is still noticeable (even though less visible due to the higher resolution) also with the "More Space" setting active. But not so bad as in the default resolution so this could be ok for most photo editing. On the other hand, the version I compiled from scratch with X11 gtk backend shows pixel-perfect interface in full screen mode. I have uploaded a few screenshots here: http://we.tl/Di7mXeHcbs View the pictures at 100% zoom and you'll notice the difference: the only one delivering the same quality as the Lightroom demo is X11 in full screen mode and resolution set to 2880x1800 with xrandr. >.mm > > Last, a comment on my first message: I didn't want to be disrespectful of your great work by defining it "unusable"... but switching from the Lightroom demo to Darktable, the difference in image rendering was huge.
