XnView Software

Thanks for the developers that create the great software, but it seems that the HiDPI support is not built in with the application. When I use it on Windows 10 with a 4K display, all the icons are quite small and also some other UI elements need to polish for the HiDPI display.

Thanks for the great contribution on this great software.

Which UI element? Could you post screenshot?

I have the same problem on a 3200*1800 resolution screen.
The UI / Icons are all really small. I added the requested screenshot.
Ps I love the program so I really miss being able to use it properly.

At the moment, neither XnView nor MP are scaling their icons.

As a workaround, you can do this yourself:

This it not too complicated, but you're right
- an automatic function would be more user-friendliy
- bitmap-based icons lose quality when scaling them up, in contrast to vector-based formats

in XnViewMP 0.75, you have 'large icons' setting

Ah, thank you!

I'm using 2560x1440 resolution with 125% scale DPI. With Large Icons feature xnviewmp began easier to use, thank you. But some of other UI elements and fonts size need tweak for better usability with hidpi. Please keep work with this direction in future releases.

This works only for top level toolbar, but not for images browsing panel toolbar

I'm using Linux Mint Cinnamon edition.
For the best UX with HiDPI screen:

1. Open XnView MP.
2. Go to the top menu and click on Tools → Settings.
3. In the left sidebar, navigate to Interface → Toolbar.
4. Look for the option labeled Large icons.
5. Uncheck (disable) the checkbox next to Large icons.
6. Click OK to save the changes.
7. Run in console
8. Log out
9. Log in

Perhaps a similar approach will work for the Windows version also.
