Hi, To avoid confusion, I propose to clarify documentation to mention what gui elements are affected by the properties changes.
------------------------------------------------- The HiDPI mode isn't currently by Swing API as per Java Virtual Machine 7, 8 or 9 on Linux, Windows or Mac OSx. JMeter with a HiDPI screen can be very hard to see (little icons and chars). You can improve the JMeter's display on HiDPI screen by changing some properties. This is not a HiDPI full support and only affects: - JMeter tree nodes - Menu icons - Tables content ------------------------------------------------- On Saturday, July 16, 2016, Felix Schumacher < [email protected]> wrote: > > > Am 16.
