    I recently upgraded RefindPlus from v.0.12.0.AL to v.0.12.0.AN and now it is no longer scanning my OSX volume as it was before. The author of RefindPlus suggested I post my question here. I do not know if this is because of a bug of somekind or mis configuration on my part, though I have tried to be very careful about using the settings I had before, maybe I am missing something. details: The main OSX volume in question is a Mojave boot volume, called "Boot". If clear the NVRAM, it will boot normally...

    I was able to make my icons exactly the size I want, and the font too by using 24pt font.

    I have reviewed the code for RefindPlus briefly and its not clear to me that its actually doing any whole-screen scaling in any case. Looks to me that it simply looks at the resolution and then either chooses big icons or small icons depending on that. You can specify what you want those to be in refind.conf. the font can also be overridden with your own PNG font of any size.

    You are conflating several things joevt and missing the point I am trying to explain to you. There is a "virtual" PPI which is the actual density of virtual pixels that can be addressed by application software. Those pixels may or may not be represented 1:1 by the physical device. Higher resolution monitors, such as Apple Branded Retina, can use HiDPI technology to represent each virtual pixel by 4 pixels in the physical device. In that way interpolation can be used to make the lines and curves less...

    and new monitors are coming out that will be even denser in terms of physical pixels..but again...rEFnd should not be concerning itself with that kind of detail. OSX and Windows do a lot of fancy stuff with HiDPI, together with video drivers. Its a lot of stuff to concern about..generally application software doesn't put any thought into any of it, it just programs to whatever the virtual effective canvas is...regardless of the underlying physical density. rEFInd has a lot of other stuff to worry...
