Increase the size of the icons up to 48 px? I think it is a cool idea. Can you provide an initial patch ? see: https://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform_UI/How_to_Contribute Adding Markus in c/c as he might be interested in Hi-DPI Thank you Patrik for your reply. I would love to provide an initial patch. But I've never contributed to the Eclipse sourcecode before. So I'm kind of a newbie to the Eclipse codebase. How steep is the learning curve? And where can I find documentation to get started? Kind greetings, Kristof Kristof, sorry for the late reply. The learning curve is harder than average. QuickStart: - Sign the CLA (now ECA) - Install the Eclipse installer by Oomph, - Start installing your IDE using Eclipse IDE for committers as base Product - Select Eclipse Platform UI as the project to contribute to. - Wait for the IDE is installed and the source code is downloaded. - Then you can start the development.
