Livecode IDE Retina Support

[Danieldz]

Hello all,

I have been looking in this forums and I think that this request hasn't been made.

It would be nice if Livecode IDE had retina display support. What I mean is that if your are working in a MacBook Retina Display you see the elements in the IDE really pixelated: windows, icons, controls, text (even the code).

Regard,

Daniel

Apparently adding:

Code: Select all

	<key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key>
	<string>True</string>

just before the </dict> tag at the end of the info.plist file is supposed to allow apps to display nicely on Retina monitors, but I have no way of testing it..

Hello shaosean, thank you for your answer.

I can see that you have a solution for a specific App, but I'm talking about the Livecode IDE.
The quality of graphics and text is really low in retina monitors.

The IDE is just an app, so the same thing should work in there.. Unless you are talking about having your compiled apps automatically detect Retina monitors and display the correct resources, the engine can't do that just yet..
