Running on HiDPI screen From Bisq Wiki Jump to navigation Jump to search Running Bisq on a HiDPI screen (2k, 4k, etc) with default settings often leads to small text. This article covers how to fix this issue on Linux. Contents 1 Command-line fix 2 GUI fix Command-line fix Adjust scaling with the following prefix: JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dglass.gtk.uiScale=1.4" /opt/bisq/bin/Bisq /opt/bisq/bin/Bisq is the default application directory on Linux. If you run another operating system, you'll need to replace that path with the one for your OS . You can adjust the scaling factor as you wish, of course, and add any runtime options for Bisq as well. GUI fix To be able to launch the fix by double clicking an icon, rather than running a command in CLI, you can edit the launcher file to run, instead of the Bisq app directly, a shell script which injects said fix. 1. Create a text file (for example /opt/bisq/Bisq-runner.sh ) containing the following code: #!/bin/bash JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dglass.gtk.uiScale=1.4" /opt/bisq/bin/Bisq 2. Make it executable: chmod +x /opt/bisq/Bisq-runner.sh 3. Edit the launcher file ( /opt/bisq/Bisq.desktop and/or /usr/share/applications/Bisq.desktop ) by opening it in a text editor and modifying the Exec line like follows: Exec=/opt/bisq/Bisq-runner.sh Retrieved from " http://s3p666he6q6djb6u3ekjdkmoyd77w63zq6gqf6sde54yg6bdfqukz2qd.onion/index.php?title=Running_on_HiDPI_screen&oldid=2231 " Navigation menu Personal tools English Log in Namespaces Page Discussion Variants Views Read View source View history More Search Navigation Main page Recent changes Random page Help about MediaWiki Tools What links here Related changes Special pages Printable version Permanent link Page information This page was last edited on 28 April 2021, at 23:02.
