Hi Matthias

Any results that you can share?

We could do a survey at Eclipse and then use the result as recommendation to 
developers.

Hi Dani,



thanks for answering.



I am talking about the IDE (as we are building an IDE here at SAP).

So with “where” I would say there are two real use-cases. A user uses a laptop 
screen and a user uses an external monitor.

I know that there cannot be a “strict” and general rule but a guideline would 
really be of help.

Hi Matthias

I don't think you can define this in general. It depends on the application and 
where (device) it's used. Or are you specifically talking about the IDE?

What results did you get out of your survey?

The UI guidelines did not get an update for quite some time.

Dear Platform-Devs,



UI designers and developers have to know which minimum screen resolution they 
should support. Otherwise, it becomes frustrating to design UIs because there 
is not specific design target.

Source code based editor mainly don’t have issue with this topic. When writing 
form-based Eclipse-UIs this topic is much more important.

I am wondering if there is an Eclipse-Guideline on this topic? Does platform 
make any statements what the minimum supported screen resolution is?

I did not find anything on https://wiki.eclipse.org/User_Interface_Guidelines. 
Or maybe your company has a company specific guideline you stick to when 
developing Eclipse-UIs.



In order to get an impression of commonly used screen resolutions from users of 
SAP’s “ABAP Development Tools” we asked customers and colleagues to go to the 
website http://whatismyscreenresolution.netand report the output of that page. 
The interesting point of this page is that it reports the “scaled” images and 
not the physical pixels of the display (e.g. when you have set a scaling-factor 
like 125% in Windows’ Control Panel).
