The fonts of lazarus look very ugly on my Macbook Retina, a few weeks ago I found the tool retinizer

http://retinizer.mikelpr.com/

and used it on lazarus, the results were amazing, very nice&crisp fonts!

I would now like to create the necessary ressources for lazarus so that it uses retina out of the box without the need of using retinizer, main problem for me is that I do not use the graphical designer at all, I am using lazarus for embedded systems only, so I cannot really tell if switching lazarus to retina mode breaks anything in the GUI.

Anybody else any experience ?

Nice.
How does it achieve that?

Hi Mattias,

sorry that I did not answer your Post before today, somehow I did not see it.

But as I saw in svn you managed to find it out by yourself, thank you for adding retina support to trunk!
