CodeBlocks on retina display

<< < (2/3) > >>

user4385re:
I'm truly sorry, i'm new to programming so i really don't know how to do it :(.

dmoore:
here: http://svn.code.sf.net/p/codeblocks/code/resources/

But apparently noone has made SVGs for toolbar/menu icons

user4385re:
Thanks a lot for your reply, i will try to replace the icons, but the real problem is the resolution of the text. Is there any thing to do about that ?

Do you have a screenshot? Not sure exactly how Mac Retina works, but doesn't it do some sort of pixel doubling for apps that don't affirmatively signal that they are retina compatible?

I didn't see a lot of good info on this on wxWidgets related sites, but here's a couple

With regard to text rendering, the latter of those links says:


--- Quote ---To have text rendered sharply on macs with a Retina display the key "NSPrincipalClass" should exist in the info.plist of your application. Its value seems to be irrelevant - probably it's best to just set it to the default "NSApplication".

--- End quote ---

Btw, if you try to go with double sized PNGs you will need to figure out how to inform that OS that these shouldn't be pixel doubled.

user4385re:
Yep, here's the screenshots, i couldn't do bigger ones due to the allowed space.
The first screen is from code blocks and the second from powerpoint so to compare between them =).

There's an other problem, in mac, code blocks is not installed (we don't have a directory specific to code blocks, just the application) so i don't know how to replace the icons.

Thanks a lot for your help.
