hi-dpi support

I'm using Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro and it has a 3200x1800 display. My operating system is Windows 8.1 x64 with Update.

My config is 3200x1800 resolution and 200% scaling and HeidiSQL is looks blurry and pixelated.

Also in same config, HeidiSQL Start Menu icon is looks very small.

Any plan for those?
Thank you.

same case,same pb for me too..

The start menu icon is 32*32px, right? Yes, the main icon in HeidiSQL does not provide a bigger version. That's solvable. Which additional dimensions are reasonable? 64*64px I guess, and probably 128*128px?

64px and 256px icon versions added in r4861

For the ugly scaling things, I don't know a way to circumstance that.

i am on 3840x2160 but right now, its not a majority but if you think to future, it should smart to think 128x128 or 256x256 ..

vector icon solve many ugly display pb but not sure windows allow that thing..:)

As said above, I added a 256px icon in the latest build.

Vector icons are not supported as far as I know.

I can surely say that; 256px MAINICON will solve this small Start Menu icon problem.

I just had to modify my build script. brcc32.exe does not support such big icons, so I had to go for cgrc.exe: http://qc.embarcadero.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?d=45574

I've tested build 4861 and now I have a shiny, big, crystal clear HeidiSQL icon on my Windows 8.1 Start Menu.

The other thing is, when I enabled 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' option in Compatibility settings (right click on heidisql.exe > Properties > Compatibility), HeidiSQL looks almost perfect on my hidpi screen. It seems some components are not supporting hidpi. Tree and Grid supporting hidpi and it's usable so far.

are we talking only about the start menu icon ??
I was very exited if we're talking about all gui icon inside the soft..
That seems more important think than the starting icon menu , no?!

You have to know that the " windows scale hight dpi setting " begin with windows 8 is totaly useless , this feature just blur all windows by (bad)zooming inside,
thats a common know pb in the windows hight dpi world;

For this reason all good program today should allow an hight dpi view from inside .
That mean allow increase font-size for all panes , allow a large icon menu view too, etc.. Almost for the transition, in few month i think all soft will be "gui refactored" .

Angsar , did you try HeideiSQL on win8 with some hight dpi screan ?
i guess you could be very surprise , perhaps chocked :)

@gui, we are not ONLY talking about start menu icon. I wrote two things; 1-hidpi support, 2-start menu icon. start menu icon issue is solved. now I'm sure ansgar is looking some answers for hidpi support which is also including 'gui icon inside the soft..'.

so its sounds good :)
