Please consider HiDPI screens when planning icon sizes, at least they
should be configurable, there is still a settings option for icon sizes.
At the HF we discussed about the different options, one is to add options
like
very small
small
normal
big
huge
instead of the px size, this should
Having more SVG icons helps a lot to make the interface look good
(despite the fact that some graphics designer may object that there's no
hinting)
For reference, this code is used in QField to calculate button sizes and
may as well be used to calculate the default icon size device independently:
I'd say the related changes committed within the last 72 hours helped a lot
in that regard. For one, the icon refresh moved away from 16 x 16 png icons
to SVG graphics. In addition, the icon size for dock tool buttons are now
taking into account the user preferred icon size.

Hi Matthias,
I'm not understanding that referenced calculation. The fixed number you
multiply the dpi against is platform-specific, yes?
I would be interested in a Qt4-based black box function to manage this
high-rez scaling.
For reference, though a bit dated:

As Nyall mentioned, icon size of the dock tool button will go back to 16 x
16 by default. That'll make things look the same as before.
That said, the border on the buttons (no present on other OSes) aren't very
nice. It might be worth adding a style specifically for os x to remove
those.
Hi Nyall,
Thanks.
