Description Andreas Sewe CLA 2016-09-09 16:34:07 EDT 
Hi,

just testing the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers Neon.1 RC3 package. On the "Java Settings" page of the "New Java Project" wizard the same icon is present in both high- and low-DPI variants.

In the toolbar, "New source folder" and "Link additional source" have High-DPI icons. But in the Details part, they have low-DPI icons.

As High-DPI icons obviously exist, they should be used everywhere.

I tried to reproduce using the latest SDK M-build, but then everything looked OK to me (yes, this was on HiDPI :) ).
Do you have a screenshot?

Attached. Taken on OS X 10.10.5 with Scaled (More Space) display settings.

So this is not about image size, but about blurred appearance?

On my Linux box with 2560x1440 all looks sharp to me and from debugging I can confirm that the @2x icon is used.

In your screenshot also some of the text is blurred, so maybe s.t. else is happening here? Maybe s.t. Mac-specific?

Yes, this bug report is about choosing @1x instead of @2x icons.

You are right, it's not only the icons, but also the Link widgets next to them. And yes, this may very well be OS X specific. Thanks for checking under a different OS.

Mac doesnot use high resolution images yet. That is the reason why you are seeing this 

Please refer these bugs 
Bug 489451 - to create high resolution pixel buffers on retina.

I am marking this a duplicate of Bug 489451
