Bug #: 35660
Summary: Use high resolution graphics or vector graphics to
improve display on high res screens
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Device compatibility
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
With screens like that of the New iPad entering main stream, our traditional
png formatted interface elements no longer suffice. The pngs are 72dpi and the
screens can be up to 250dpi. The external link icon, expand/collapse arrows in
the Vector sidebar, icons in the edit toolbar and the MediaWiki/Wikipedia logo,
basically all bitmap based images in MediaWiki, are affected. The visual
experience on suffers noticeably.
Another area where I noticed it, but also visible when using enlarged
characters, is in unnumbered lists. No idea how exactly this works, but the
bullet seems to be an image, and not a character.
Last but not least, the preview/thumbnailing is of course okay when using a 72
dpi screen, but that becomes a vague experience on a 250 dpi iPad screen.
