SUMMARY

On a mac with retina display, the main windows will change the pixel ratio after any dialog is open. I could not found an action that will return the main window to display properly. Only exiting/re-opening the application does.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ensure the mac retina has NO external monitor. (Some external monitor, when mirroring disables retina)
2. Open digiKam
3. Open preferences (either menu or shortcut)

OBSERVED RESULT
The icons, fonts and controls in the main window double its size after performing step 3.

EXPECTED RESULT
Icons, fonts and controls should keep the original size.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 10.14.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
MacBookPro14,3

Note : if you use homebrew, the main problem is to use Qt < 5.12.3

Confirmed it's fixed in 6.4.0.

Thanks!

Regarding Qt < 5.12.3, homebrew (cask) download directly the pkg from download.kde.org. I fail to see how there is an issue present specifc if installed digiKam from homebrew-case. Ref: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/master/Casks/digikam.rb

Thanks! I was trying to clarify the information. My apologies if the phrase came out wrong.

I will keep learning digiKam using 6.4.0
