Description Keith Curtis 2015-04-22 21:40:03 UTC 
People are working on HiDPI toolbar bitmaps, but the LibreOffice code still needs to support to loading them.
 
The current code just doubles all the bitmaps: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/source/window/toolbox2.cxx#1112

This is a nice little hack that can stay around as long as we still have some themes without better bitmaps, but one day someone needs to write a bit of code that fixes (some of) the callers of this routine, and make them load larger bitmaps if they exist for a theme.

One open issue is whether it worth it using the SVG format.

I believe this is an interesting Easy Hack that could make a nice visual improvement on these pretty screens. For now, it would probably only apply to Linux and Windows, and somewhat different code would be needed for the Mac.

I saw this was fixed in 5.3.
