Hi Matthias

I don't think you can define this in general. It depends on the 
application and where (device) it's used. Or are you specifically talking 
about the IDE?

What results did you get out of your survey?

The UI guidelines did not get an update for quite some time.

Subject:        [platform-dev] Eclipse-UIs and minimum screen resolution
Sent by:        [email protected]



Dear Platform-Devs,
 
UI designers and developers have to know which minimum screen resolution 
they should support. Otherwise, it becomes frustrating to design UIs 
because there is not specific design target.
Source code based editor mainly don?t have issue with this topic. When 
writing form-based Eclipse-UIs this topic is much more important.
I am wondering if there is an Eclipse-Guideline on this topic? Does 
platform make any statements what the minimum supported screen resolution 
is? 
I did not find anything on 
https://wiki.eclipse.org/User_Interface_Guidelines. Or maybe your company 
has a company specific guideline you stick to when developing Eclipse-UIs.
 
In order to get an impression of commonly used screen resolutions from 
users of SAP?s ?ABAP Development Tools? we asked customers and colleagues 
to go to the website http://whatismyscreenresolution.net  and report the 
output of that page. The interesting point of this page is that it reports 
the ?scaled? images and not the physical pixels of the display (e.g. when 
you have set a scaling-factor like 125% in Windows? Control Panel).
