I understand that the match before was just luck. However, we know what size system fonts have on a Mac (you can't change it without using some third party tools). So why not make sure that the size in mm of the average text in DT matches that of the average text in menus/dialogs on OS X? .mm

I assume by old version you mean rc1 (1.5.1). It didn't detect the right DPI at all (since OS X always reports it as 72) which screwed up other GUI things (like font size in bauhaus widgets). It was fixed since then and the change is unrelated to Retina. The way it looks now is the "correct" way, i

DT's GUI is scaled according to DPI so that physical size of fonts (and other elements) remains the same. I get that with more pixels on display users may want to make things smaller, there are 2 ways to do that: 1). screen_dpi_overwrite setting in ~/.config/darktable/darktablerc 2). tuning font si

Hello everybody, for those interested in OS X HiDPI support in darktable I've prepared a test build that should work in native resolution on Retina displays. Anybody willing to give it a try and report any issues (besides some widgets still being rendered pixelated there might be more serious bugs
