Hi, This is probably already a potential known solution to the display issue on MAC Retina displays but I've just tried the latest CogVM with the Pharo 4.0 image and using Cog fixes the issue, it no longer leaves outlines of windows or tracers. Thanks

No, this is just because Cog defaults to "Open in low resolution" and Pharo VM does not. You can start Pharo VM in low resolution and then you do not have the artefacts. This might be a short term workaround. But the goal would be to have retina support for Pharo :) <http://forum.world.st/file/n4822030/Cog_low_resolution.jpg> -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-4-0-display-tp4821797p4822030.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Wow, I didn't even know this option existed ! Thanks, this seems like a very useful workaround.

So what does "low resolution" mean in this context? Recursive68 didn't indicate that the display was pixelated. cheers -ben
