I have a macbook pro with (very) high resolution running kubuntu linux. And Lazarus doesn't look good. All bitmaps are tiny. Some lazarus forms are to small so you have to resize them first. The component bar is not high enough so you almost can't see or click on the components. I can't resize lazarus mainform.

Codings works great but it's hard to design/edit forms. They are also very small.

I have a QT based Lazarus but it's QT4 and still not QT5. I think QT5 handles high res screens better.

regards,
  Erwin

These days that's not such a high resolution, so in itself that should
not cause a problem. I run at double that resolution without problems.

What is your desktop DPI setting at?

[~]$ xdpyinfo | grep res
     Present
   resolution:    96x96 dots per inch


I would expect Lazarus IDE [in this day and age] to take DPI values in
account and scale accordingly, and not always expect them to be
hard-coded at 96 dpi. Greater than 96dpi is more and more common place
these days.
