[[ ResIndependence ]] and Mac retina displays
Posted: Thu Sep 12, 2013 2:40 pm
I was happy to see that the graphics and resindependence branches were merged into develop. The big question I have is whether or not we will get support for Mac laptop retina displays and Windows desktops set to scale to 150%?
I see in the source that OS X always returns 1.0 for MCResGetDeviceScale() and after testing a couple of things it doesn't look like support is there yet.
Browsing through the Carbon mailing list archives I see that Carbon apps can specify support for retina displays by means of the kHIWindowBitFrameworkScaled window attribute and the NSHighResolutionCapable attribute in the Info.plist.

So is the RunRev team attempting to add support under carbon (I don't know how much work it is) or is the plan to wait for Cocoa? I'm nearing beta testing for a new product and retina support is very important.
