Hi,
the next release of i3 should behave correctly on Retina/HiDPI
displays. However, I’m not 100% sure how we should query the
DPI.
Currently, we use the value that you can change using xrandr --dpi.
There is also an XResources property called Xft.dpi, which some programs
(notably GTK?) seem to use.
See
e.g. http://askubuntu.com/questions/197828/how-to-find-and-change-the-screen-dpi
for a bit more details on how to find/change those values.
My question is: does anyone have a strong preference on which of these
we should use? If so, why?
