High DPI Rendering

[d404]

I would be awesome if you could render the html content for high dpi screens properly like chrome and firefox do.

I've a attached a screenshot for comparison:

Cheers.

I made a quick and dirty fix for this

@GeorgeHahn - thanks for the stylesheet which improves things in a high DPI environment. However, when I switch to an external monitor (which is standard DPI) then I subsequently find everything too large!

It looks like MarkdownPad uses Awesomium 1.6, and the latest version, 1.7.4 has support for detecting and adjusting to the device's DPI setting - http://docs.awesomium.net/?tc=P_Awesomium_Windows_Controls_WebControl_AdjustToDpi - so, aside from adding hi-res toolbar icons, an upgrade to Awesomium may resolve this issue.

@davidcornish Thanks for the reply. I'm actually in-progress of implementing a completely new rendering engine; my goal is to offer High DPI support for the next release.

Any idea when can we see the new version that will implement this functionality?

Thanks
