โ€ŒmacOS Retina Mode

High-DPI monitors should go pretty smoothly on macOS, including moving views among standard- and high-DPI monitors (such as from a retina laptop to a standard monitor) or changing the mode of a display.

Again, be sure that your display resolution is appropriate, typically with either โ€œDefault for displayโ€ selected in the monitor settings, or the native display resolution selected if โ€œScaledโ€ is selected. Other values will result in fuzziness.

Tip : If your monitor has 1920 pix horizontal resolution (originally or after dividing by two for high DPI), the top area of SynthEyes may be wide enough to force a two-line organization that takes up some more real estate. You can get to the single-line layout by turning off Show Undo/Redo/Save in the User Interface preferences (more mac-like anyway, if less convenient). Or, reduce the UI font size.
