Re: [PATCH] Implement primitive icon scaling for high DPI

 

Tried the patch, didnt really notice anything different though, I guess you need to add some custom scaling for this to take effect?

Sure, assign me to it. I should have time to work on it tonight or
tomorrow.

FYI, the edit footprint dialog in Pcbnew is not sized properly (at least
on windows) which I'm pretty sure is related to your recent HiDPI work.
Do you want me to file a bug report for it?

By the way, I'm going to go ahead and push this tonight-ish if nobody
objects. I know it's on the big side, but due to my limited number of
machines to test on I really want time for user feedback. I'll be around
to put out any fires.

Hi Chris,

The patch does not apply cleanly on the current master, would you rebase
it? Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Orson

Hi,

As discussed with Wayne earlier, I've attached a patch which adds simple
toolbar icon scaling so the toolbars are readable on high-DPI systems.

This is meant as a stopgap for 5.0, with plans to add proper scaled
icons in the 6.0 cycle. A function KiScaledBitmap() is added, which
works like KiBitmap() except it scales the bitmap according to the
calling window's font size. Controls have been added to all the main
applications to let the user select scaling manually (these were omitted
from smaller apps that didn't already have a place to put them).

In addition, in eeschema only, the pixel height of the system font is
shown in the options dialog for diagnostics. This is only for collecting
feedback before 5.0 release from users with different displays and will
be removed.

I would like to push this fairly soon, as I want to get as much user
feedback as possible before release. I have a limited number of systems
to test this on myself.
