You can also set this parameter in XFCE preferences: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
xfce4-appearance-settings -> Fonts tab -> Own DPI-Value |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
But AFAIK the dpi setting is only for fonts. If you also wanna have |
| 29 |
bigger window decorations then start xfwm4-settings and set |
| 30 |
Default-hdpi or Default-xhdpi as theme. AFAIK both themes are part of |
| 31 |
x11-themes/xfwm4-themes. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
If you wanna set the icon sizes (panel, menu, buttons, toolbar) for |
| 35 |
the gtk2-theme that you use, then edit the gtkrc file of this theme. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Before you do this you should copy the complete theme directory into |
| 38 |
~/.themes/ (if .themes doesn't exist then create it), then rename it |
| 39 |
and then edit the gtkrc file. Finally you can set this theme as your |
| 40 |
new theme. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
By example: |
| 43 |
cp -r /usr/share/themes/Xfce-basic/ ~/.themes/ |
| 44 |
mv ~/.themes/Xfce-basic ~/.themes/Xfce-basic_big-icons |
| 45 |
vi ~/.themes/Xfce-basic_big-icons/gtk-2.0/gtkrc |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
I have a 140 DPI display and insert these two lines at top of my |
| 48 |
gtkrc: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
gtk-toolbar-icon-size = large-toolbar |
| 51 |
gtk-icon-sizes = "panel-menu=32,32:panel=32,32:gtk-button=24,24:gtk-large-toolbar=48,48:gtk-small-toolbar=32,32" |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
To be honest, I forgot for what the first line is good for. It's some |
| 54 |
time ago that I did this and my memory isn't as reliable as it was |
| 55 |
20 years ago. ;-) |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
However some programs don't have a GUI that is ready yet for HiDPI |
| 59 |
displays. By example I have not found an option in Gimp to increase |
| 60 |
the size of its tiny toolbar icons. |
