I tried to use QuPath (v0.3.0) for inspecting my IHC slides but the menu is so small that I can't use it:

Is there a way to modify the resolution for the application?
I don't want to change my display resolution since all the other windows has the proper appearance. As you can see in the screenshot the border and letters of the window has the proper size but it is not the case for the QuPath menu. It would be ideal if there was a way to modify “GUI scale” in the Edit>Preferences>Appearance dialog.
Thanks in advance

Hi @mmfalco Does this forum discussion answer your question? https://forum.image.sc/t/qupath-app-adapts-to-4k-screen/54077

(The forum is better for all questions - GitHub issues should just be for bugs; I'm not sure that this describes a bug that we could replicate and fix)

Thanks for the quick response! This post has been useful. Rather than a bug it was a suggested feature to improve this great software. I will take this into consideration for future suggestions. Thanks again.

No problem! From the previous discussion, I think it may dependent upon the operating system and JavaFX - and therefore not something that we can fix within QuPath itself. But I'm not sure.

Please do let me know if you find a solution!

@mmfalco I've just checked out the JavaFX 17 release note and saw this fix: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8248126

Currently QuPath is using JavaFX 16, although if you'd like to try it with 17 you'd probably only need to change one line here, then build from source as described here.

QuPath v0.4.x will use Java/JavaFX 17. I'm a little tempted to introduce JavaFX 17 already in v0.3.1, especially if it resolves this problem (and doesn't break our own versioning rules).

petebankhead added a commit to petebankhead/qupath that referenced this issue Nov 20, 2021
JavaFX update is included based on changelog, since it may fix issues such as qupath#833

Build scripts now have *extremely* provisional and experimental support for Apple Silicon. To use this, it is necessary to build with a suitable aarch64 JDK and (probably) skip specifying a toolchain, e.g. with
```
./gradlew build jpackage -Ptoolchain=skip
```
Note 1: This will break OpenSlide support. Whole slide images need to be read some other way (e.g. Bio-Formats).

Note2 : This relies upon a JavaCPP-Presets snapshot for OpenCV, so is subject to change and not intended for any serious work. Nevertheless, it can be used to give an impression of performance improvements.
