Well, I disagree with this statement. I think that resolution could be "virtualised", so that old apps would see some reasonably high definition screen with some more or less fixed DPI or something like DPI (perhaps dots per radi- an). While some extension would allow to obtain more physical pixel properties of windows/screens without disturbing apps and li- braries that stuck to an old two-dimensional 15-bit coord tris- timulus pixels, and to implement coordinate transformations to draw with extended resolution on existing windows or even pixmaps. It is just not really necessary now, considering that even 8k screens are really rare. > the development community is putting it's efforts into Wayland instead > now. > > -- > -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com > Oracle Solaris Engineering - https://blogs.oracle.com/alanc > _______________________________________________ > xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support > Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg > Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg > Your subscription address: %(user_address)s _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
