Linux hiDPI

Post by Pamphagus »

Hi all,

how do I scale the GUI for the start up screens and the lobby in Linux? There is no option on right clicking the taskbar (it is a windows only option).

Many thanks,
Pamphagus

I guess the only option is to install a hi resolution interface. I found one which is bit better but still too small for me.
If I get the time and learn how to use Oak I might try to create a higher resolution interface, though it will be nice if someone who has done it can do that (much faster)

We don't support HiDPI on Linux unfortunately. However, it's true that you can use a higher-res interface. The Myth II 1.8.2 beta which we just posted includes one by default which has some improvements over previous versions.

Thanks Myrd,
I am using the expansive interface 1024x768 and it is still small. For now i just halve the resolution of the monitor (laptop) and it seems ok.
