Retina Display Function Scaling too much

xarfai42 · 10-19-14, 07:47 AM

Hi,

I updated from r2a to r4 today and the "Retina display" option seems to increase the hud size by much more than it used to, from the look of it probably around double the increase as before.

I use a 2550x1440 screen and for this its way too large, it might be alright for 4k. Though I imagine its a bug.

Do you have any screenshots? Preferably before/after for comparison.

I am running at 3840 x 2160. RealUI has been pretty much the only suite that worked for me at 4k. Was working great with R2. It could be one of my other addons that started messing things up, but I figured I would start with realui.

There was a bug fixed with the UI scaler in r3, fixing that might have caused the Retina scale to change. Go to /realadv -> UI Scaler and you can adjust the value there.

Let me know if you find a good value, and I can set that up as the default for Retina mode. Sorry to have you do testing like this, but I don't have a Retina/4k display to properly do it myself.

Made a Git change that might fix this up. The original fix was to remove the uiScale CVar entirely. I've added it back in now, so it should work the way it used to prior to r3.

Hope that helps, if I can do anything else just ask I will look tomorrow morning since its already late here in europe.

Sorry, the potential fix hasn't been uploaded yet to WoW Interface. Gethe will probably do an update today or tomorrow.

No worries, especially since I tend to keep my old ui version and can easily switch back, but thanks for the quick feedback and the great ui

Thank you for all the hard work. I really appreciate RealUI!
