the installation does not seem correct - Hall - 07-02-2023 hello, Windows 11. I installed Gimp but I think there is a probem with the interface : Everything is very small and it doesn't look like this picture at all: RE: the installation does not seem correct - Ofnuts - 07-02-2023 See Edit > Preferences > Interface > Themes and Edit > Preferences >Interface > Icon theme (where you can also select an icon size). RE: the installation does not seem correct - rich2005 - 07-03-2023 Is this a 4k display ? If you have the Gimp window maximised it might be useful to un-maximise it while making adjustments. There are hot-spots along the edges of the docks, click and drag to resize. They might not be easy to see with your display but they are there. [attachment=10016] If that does not work, then In Gimp Edit -> Preferences -> Interface -> Window Management and click on Reset Saved Window Positions to Default Values Restart Gimp https://i.imgur.com/aGM8ooc.jpg and that should restore to something like your second screenshot. Then also in edit preferences alternative themes and icons themes https://i.imgur.com/IGpgmST.jpg icons https://i.imgur.com/PN7yFgF.jpg a 1 minute demo https://i.imgur.com/hTY3XHb.mp4 A high definition display - even largest tool icons are on the small side. not much you can do from inside Gimp, apparently there are Windows display settings to change the display overall. RE: the installation does not seem correct - Hall - 07-05-2023 Hello, Thanks, very usefull. In fact I have 2 screens, the screenshot of my first post was taken with screen number 1 which has this resolution: Has this the result now: This is a screenshot taken with screen number 2 which has this resolution: I would prefer to use gimp with screen number 1 because it has better color rendering but I find that many interface elements are really too small: Can you tell me if I need to make any changes to the display settings: |
