This is the typical chicken-egg problem: LO's SVG rasterizer / icons broken => default to PNG. Everybody uses PNG (and some complain about blocky icons in HiDPI) => nobody fixes the LO's SVG rasterizer / icons. Some more background info is in bug 133877 comment 11.
And OTOH people can manually select an SVG icon set, so the pressure to fix this isn't really high. While the SVG icons easily look better when scaled, the PNG icons definitely look better in 100% / non-scaled in Linux. And it also doesn't help that gtk3 always scales the rasterized icons, so you get the worse 100% SVG icons scaled to HiDPI. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738774 Title: Pixeled icons with LibreOffice 5.1.6.2 on HiDPI/4K display Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: LibreOffice 5.1.6.2 shipped with Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS shows pixeled icons on a HiDPI/4K monitor like used in the Dell XPS 13 9360.
