macOS blurry window bar

Brand new users here. I just downloaded the latest stable release and ran the graphicsExample app using make and then make RunRelease. Why is the window bar so blurry?

macOS Ventura 13.3.1

Hi, welcome.
THat is just a macos quirkiness. If you run the app in hi resolution (retina) mode that does not happen. Nothing to really worry about

cheers

Just out of curiosity what is called? Searching the documentation for “high resolution” search_results | openFrameworks doesn’t seems to find anything.

you have to search for the field “high resolution” in your xcode project file, using xcode, and then turn it on and rebuild

C*** :weary: , I have deleted Xcode. It is just so slow anywhere from 2 til 5-8 seconds for the completions to appear. I guess I need the 13GB to modify as config file.

You don’t need Xcode to edit the file. Open .plist file in a text editor and paste the following XML string as follows to the end of the document.

	<key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key>
	<true/>

The complete plist file in the editor should look like this;
