Created attachment 130634 [details] Options screenshot LO 5.3.02, Linux, openSuse Leap 42.2, Plasma 5.8.5 The icons of the UI look terribly. In toolbar, in sidebar and in all possible bars. Even is I select small icons they appear big and ugly. Have tried all possible icon sets and options. No openGL is used. If I turn openGL on, LO wont start at all. The problem occurred with LO 5.3, previous version were OK. The problem remains if LO is started with a brand new user profile. Regards, Bojan
... any screenshot so we can see what you are referring to?

Is there anything special about your KDE antialiasing settings?
No, no special settings, and in particular no changes at all if compared to previous installation of LO 5.2. All applications and the Desktop of course, run smoothly, including Firefox, Thunderbird and other GTK based applications.
Aha, it works OK in KDE for me, so I have no idea of the problem.
Some more strange behaviour of LO53RC2. I just installed it in my office, along with LO5.2. If ran as LO5.2 user, LO5.3 will not start. I ran it from the command line by cd /opt/libreoffice5.3/program and entered soffice. No message whatsoever and no running LO5.3. If LO5.2 user is renamed to 4_ok, a new directory 4 is created and LO5.3 runs without problems. Also UI icons are fine now. The UI icons problem I have reported occured in my home laptop, however, all the settings are more or less the same. The user directory 4 is a tru copy of the 4 directory from my office. And as I already stressed, LO5.2 works fine and UI icons are fine, on both computers.

Aha sounds like a profile problem, then. You could try the new Safe mode with your home laptop https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Resolving_corruption
As I mentioned in my first post, starting LO with a new user profile makes no difference. Today, I tried again with a new user profile, re-installed Nvidia drivers, check all anti-aliasing settings, but no success at all. Not even a slight difference. Funny thing, if I reinstall LO5.2 everything runs fine and without any problem.
Some additional information on the issue. My home computer is notebook (HP Elitebook), Nvidia graphic with a display of 1920x1080. The UI icons are ugly in LO5.3 but fine in LO5.2. My office computer is a HP Z400 workstation, Nvidia Quadro K2000 graphic with a display of 2560x1440. Both, LO5.2 and LO5.3 present fine icons. However, LO5.3 ignores settings from LO5.2 user profile.

Let's see what happens.
I made a fresh install of LO5.3. Started LO5.3 from the command line /opt/libreoffice5.3/program/soffice and nothing had happened. I renamed the LO5.2 user profile 4 to 4_OK nad started LO5.3 again as described above. Now, LO5.3 started but the UI is even uglier than before. Probably because icons are somewhat bigger. Or maybe I just imagine. Nevertheless, no antialiasing on UI and icons look terrible. BTW: now I have both LO5.2 and LO5.3 installed. It is said on the LO website that they may coexist.
Could you try with Safe Mode, though?
Well, all what I wrote in my previous post has been done in both normal mode and Safe Mode.

Let me know when there's a build I can test with my Windows hiDPI setup.

I also see this on 5.3.0.3 on openSUSE 13.1. Worked fine before with 5.2.2.2. My xdpyinfo output lists resolution: 143x144 dots per inch Could this be an issue? I know that e.g. firefox tries to be smart and scales up its UI on "high resolution" displays (> 72 dpi?). There, I need to set layout.css.devPixelsPerPx = 1 in order to get back to 1:1 scaling prevent pixelated icons and overall space waste.
If I force font resolution to 196 as suggested here https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/HiDpi the icons get even larger. If I instead force to 96, the icons look non-pixelated but the UI text is smaller than expected.

The same happens to me on Arch Linux (LO 5.3.1, Plasma 5.9.3). My resolution is 1600x900 with 131x131 DPI. It happens with SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN set to kde4 (my long-time default), gtk or gen. With SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN set to gtk3, icons are fine. However, with this value, "everything else" is smaller -- a document outline takes less space (with zoom level set to 100% in all test cases), a text with the font set to 12 points is much smaller (not only compared to other SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN values but also in comparison with the same text using the same font in Calligra Words), etc.

Comment on attachment 133003 [details] Screenshot of LO Writer with new document showing the icons in toolbar, side panels. I have the same problem with Version: 5.3.1.2 (Build-ID: 1:5.3.1-0ubuntu2, amd64) on a 12" laptop with a 1280x800 display. I checked Tango, Galaxy, and Elementary icon sets, always with the same result: icons are displayed somewhat larger than they used to be (using small icons setting), and are very badly scaled. I am wondering: is LO upscaling small png icons or scaling svg icons badly?
PS: I am running LO on XFCE in Xubuntu 17.04.

This will be solved when SVGs are used for icons. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 115439 ***
I still have this issue on Manjaro Xfce and Windows 10 I don' have HiDPI but my screnn is 14 inch 1920 x 1080 On Xfce scaling dpi to 120 fine but icons so small doesn't obey general dpi settings. When I even make dpi 121 icons get bigger and pixelated I have another laptop 15.6 inch 1366 x 768 icons are normal size and fine in both laptops LO Version is 6.1.2.1
As noted, scaling PNG will never be of acceptable quality on HiDPI. Producing and maintaining bitmap icons at 64px or 128px in addition to the 16px 24px and 36px now can not be reliably accomplished. Relief will only come with implementation of scaled SVG icon themes as in bug 115439 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 115439 ***
