Retina/High DPI support

[Filehero]

Hmmm... ... interesting. Currently this triggers no idea in my brain. Maybe later...

It's still happening. From what my eyes can capture, it's related to your layout logic. Is there anything I can "log" to support analysis?

Btw, any ETA for scaled breadcrumb arrows and mouse pointers?

Still no idea. XY is not doing this. Maybe it's some aero snap smartness...

Future.

No, happened again today with aero snap switched off.

So, the Name Collision prompt jumps to some unexpected size (and position?), in foreground and in background file operations.

What do you mean by "get squeezed by the progress windows"?

Yes

in foreground and in background file operations.

Don't understand. What's the difference and relevance?

Sorry, bad description.
In the screenshot posted some threads before it looks like as if the left border of the progress dialog "pushes/squeezes" the right border of the collision prompt to the left.
The problem is, it's is not easily reproducible. Once I move or resize the collision prompt it stays ok during immediate re-tests (simple copy job).
The only thing I can say for sure: if it occurs than it follows a pattern.

The former concerns code in XYplorer.exe, the latter in XYcopy.exe.

I totally cannot see what's possibly going on there. Could you post this part from "Help | Various Information", please:

Thanks, I might have fixed it. Next beta...

Results of quick tests look good.

I did a series of overwrite copies with placing the progress and collision dialogs at different relative and absolute positions, but couldn't evoke the described issue(s) anymore. Well done, I'd say.

Thanks, FH

Hi Don,

after some days I really think after you have added a new size "Extra large" there is one scale missing.

Large - before the update the toolbar icons had exactly the same render size as the CFIs (see red highlighted one), no they are much smaller (which is no surprise so far).

Note: what doesn't look that dramatic in this screenshot on "normal" 100% scaling becomes much more problematic at higher dpi with 200% scaling. To show how it feels in compared reality like I have downscaled this shot accordingly.

Extra Large - now, choosing the next bigger size the tollbar icons "explode", the toolbar estate that was big enough now got that small that some CTBs even need the right-hand pull down menu for access.

Hmmm, that's not yet perfect Zen me thinks.

Yep, it's not a high-end solution. Thanks for putting the finger where it hurts.

I planned something better but realized that it would take me many months to create those 150 toolbar icons in top quality in various sizes. So I decided to go for this intermediate solution for now and look out for a better plan. Vector icons should be the way to go ... I'm still researching the possibilities.

For the time being you can make use of the ToolbarZoom tweak. e.g.:
Icon size = "Large" and "ToolbarZoom=1.5" -> 36x36

Exactly that's why I had waited for some days before posting.

This would be the end of all evil, wouldn't it?

Completely forgot about that, Thanks.

(Almost) Everything is possible, great!

Sorry for being redundant and noisy...

Hi Don,

the popup squeezing issue reappeared. Seems some other changes have "broken" the fix you've already applied.

[admin]

I'm not aware of changing anything that could be related to this.

Are these still your settings?
