Created attachment 261539 [details] splash screen after workspace selection is confirmed I'm using Win 10 with 150% scaling factor and start Eclipse with -Dswt.enable.autoScale=false argument. Initialy splash screen looks nice. After confirming the workspace selection dialog, it gets somehow damaged, looks like it tries to scale down, see attached picture.

Possible reason for this issue seems that launcher code doesn't honor -Dswt.enable.autoScale flag. Solution: This flag needs to be read from eclipse.ini file and honored in launcher code for auto-scaling for Splash screen. IMHO, should be targeted for coming Neon RC builds.

Niraj You are correct in the analysis. This needs to be fixed in the launcher

(In reply to Eclipse Genie from comment #3) > New Gerrit change created: https://git.eclipse.org/r/72490 This patch looks good but it not fixing the custom HighDPI part, it actually Adapts the launcher to 'integer' scaling which is default for Eclipse, so lets leave this bug as is for now. Created a new bug 493797 targeted for NeonRC2 for adapting launcher to 'integer' scaling.
With the changes to bug 493462, the scope of this bug got changed to customDPI settings. We will fix this in Oxygen. Moving out of Neon

This same issue happens with a scale factor of 2 on Plasma 5.13.1 on openSUSE Tumbleweed. I get 4 equally big segments of the splash screen image and text that appears to be correctly scaled but wrongly positioned (as seen in the attached screenshot already). IMO this has nothing to do with custom DPI.
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
