Public bug reported: I've tried this in two different hidpi monitors with different scaling configurations:
1) A 1920x1080 screen with scale factor 1x and font scale factor 1.25. 2) A 3000x2000 screen with scale factor 2x. In the first one, icons are too small, I have to change: this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 6); to this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 12); OTOH, icons are a little too big in the second setting and I have to do: this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 2); Icons directly managed by gnome shell are not sized according to PANEL_ICON_SIZE, see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome- shell/blob/master/js/ui/panelMenu.js Short of a smarter way of computing icons size, you could provide a setting to adjust it so that the user could fine tune it if necessary without hacking the code. ** Affects: gnome-shell-extension-appindicator (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - Size is not right with hidpi (both 2x and fractional scaling) + Size is not right with hidpi (both 2x and 1x with font scaling) ** Description changed: I've tried this in two different hidpi monitors with different scaling configurations: 1) A 1920x1080 screen with scale factor 1x and font scale factor 1.25. - + 2) A 3000x2000 screen with scale factor 2x. - In the first one, icons are too small, I have to change: - this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, + this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 6); to - this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, + this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 12); OTOH, icons are a little too big in the second setting and I have to do: - this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, + this._iconBox = new AppIndicator.IconActor(indicator, Panel.PANEL_ICON_SIZE + 2); + Icons directly managed by gnome shell are not sized according to + PANEL_ICON_SIZE, see: - Icons directly managed by gnome shell are not sized according to PANEL_ICON_SIZE, see: - - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome- + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome- shell/blob/master/js/ui/panelMenu.js Short of a smarter way of computing icons size, you could provide a - setting to adjust it. + setting to adjust it so that the user could fine tune it if necessary + without hacking the code. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1832793 Title: Size is not right with hidpi (both 2x and 1x with font scaling) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/+bug/1832793/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
