Add a gtkrc file to the gimp profile
Code:
#To set the font
style "Monaco"
{
font_name = "Monaco 20"
}
widget_class "*" style "Monaco"
gtk-font-name = "Monaco 20"
This in my regular 1920x1080 laptop. kubuntu 18.04 / Gimp 2.10.14
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't change the Gimp menu and font sizes. But thanks for trying to help me out.
You may have missed something. Worked for me (Kubuntu 19.10).
I'm doing something stupid because I can't get it to work. I have an old computer with Gimp that works okay so I'm just going to fire that one up when I need Gimp (which sucks because for years I've used Gimp pretty much every day).
I'm just going to uninstall Gimp on this newer computer with the HiDPI. Maybe I can find a different Linux that works better with Gimp and try that. I'm running Mint 19.3 XFCE now. I like it a lot. But I just can't get Gimp to work on it.
I am going to re-install the OS regardless now. I've tried a number of Internet solutions for getting Gimp to work and by now I worry that I've screwed up some things.
On a side note (from my Google searches) it seems like Gimp HiDPI issues affect a ton of people. Why is that? Is Gimp needing work to be ready for the HiDPI world? My other stuff works on Mint XFCE. And my older computer that is not HiDPI runs Gimp perfectly with Mint XFCE. I just feel like it shouldn't be this hard to get Gimp to work on a modern HiDPI computer. My other software is fine.
