Bug#920634: dialogues and general UI unreadably small on HIDPI display

[Toni]

Package: gimp
Version: 2.10.8-2
Severity: normal



Hi,

on my 15" laptop with 294 dpi, the UI of gimp has icons and dialogues
(eg. brushes or layers) so small that I can hardly read it. Using these
dialogues with the mouse is also almost impossible.


Cheers,
Toni
