Description YuNoH 2020-03-31 07:39:49 UTC
Description:
It might be the display setting of Windows 10, which is set to 150% as recommanded on my laptop, that causes the toolbar icons to be pixelated.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. The display scaling is set to 150% in Windows 10 (that's recommended).
2. Open LibreOffice (Writer, Impress ...)

Actual Results:
The icons of the toolbar in each software (Writer, Impress ...) are pixelated.

Expected Results:
I expected that LibreOffice would better handle the esthetics of the interface and the icons in the toolbar. The software should have displayed the icons in a much better resolution.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Thank you for reporting the bug.

I have associated an additional keyword with the report to let the UX team evaluate this report.

Please identify the Icon theme in use, found from the
Tools -> Options -> View 'Icons Style' drop list.

Also, please post a screen clip of the "pixelated" icons.

Clearing the user cache, C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice will force rebuild of the scaled icon cache

Also, let us know if setting the Windows UI to 125% scaling results in crisp icons.

Hello,
my icon style is Automatic (Colibre)

After cleaning the cache like suggested, the problem isn't resolved.

Setting the Windows UI to 125% scaling is better, but some issues persist. Some icons are not sharper.(see screenshot3.png in following post)

I can reproduce this. Seems like someone should look at the whole icon rendering, because beside this particular bug that manifests only with UI scaling > 100%, there also seems to be a bug at 100% scale that causes pixelation and excessively bold lines when using the SVG icons (the PNG icons are fine at 100%), probably using wrong rendering scale.
Comment 7 Heiko Tietze 2020-04-24 08:08:27 UTC
Tools > options > view allows also to use SVGs as icon themes. 
Scaling raster images will always end up in loss of quality (or time if the algorithm focus on quality).
Comment 8 khagaroth 2020-04-24 19:59:51 UTC
The problem is SVG icons are broken too, even without scaling. Though disabling OpenGL rendering does fix that, so it might be a GPU driver issue, in my case AMD RX 570 with the latest drivers (20.4.2).
