Well, the rabbit hole gets deeper. Norbert, it now seems to me that there isn't something wrong with your build, but with your OS!?!
Here is a screenshot of the current released build on Retina for comparison: <http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n4101006/Screen_Shot_2014-03-11_at_17.49.30.png> It generally looks fine, and doesn't need improvements. In it, you can see that the Calc gridlines are two pixels wide as expected because of the app scaling. (For comparison, on Linux, they are always one pixel wide which is perhaps not ideal but looks okay.) However, the gridlines are effectively the same width as yours. But look at the close buttons. I've zoomed in both to make it clearer. The one on the left is from the screenshot above, and the one on the right is from your screenshot last night. <http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n4101006/CloseButtons.png> It seems as if all of Norbert's pixels are doubled. How does this relate to the compatibility mode and DPI scale factor? I don't know WTF is going on and it is time-consuming without any hardware to try things. It seems there are possibly two problems on Norbert's machine. If the OS really gives the wrong DPI even in compatibility mode, which doesn't seem correct but is of course possible, then the simplest way disable these patches on the Mac is to just force mnDPIScaleFactor to 1. In that case, these patches would behave as it does on 4.2.1. This can be done with 2 #ifndefs in window.cxx and should achieve a similar result as disabling the bitmap doubling all over the place. Norbert, can you try that? Mac doesn't need this code as much as Win / Linux so there needs a simple way to decouple them. I was quite certain when Norbert had sent out his first mail to this thread saying there were problems with these patches that he had forgotten about what happens in compatibility mode is on -- because he'd been spending all of his time working with the "off" case. But I never imagined it would be this complicated. It would be nice to have these patches not held up by the Mac as they are right now. -Keith -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Hi-DPI-patches-for-4-2-tp4100852p4101006.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
