Jehan: re font-size The font size can be controlled by the theme, but to judge from this post, there may be some operating system/window manager effects as well: http://gimpforums.com/thread-new-default-double-theme-for-uhd-4k-sp4?pid=47087#pid47087 Maybe it's seeing "14 point" and deciding that as it's a high dpi screen, it needs to be drawn bigger. I also don't have a high dpi monitor so this is all speculation.

Though I must say it's not easy to prioritize and see what others are going through because I don't have access to any HiDPI screen, not even to test, even less for my own daily use. I have also a question, about when you say that text is also too small. From what I understood, GIMP should simply follow whatever text size settings your operating system is configured with. Are you saying that font size is bigger everywhere else but not in GIMP? I think this should not happen (but once again, I can hardly test myself without such a screen). Thanks.
