I might have broken the Pixmap cache, since I have no way to test it on 
linux. I will take a look next week.


BTW, is there a reason why you enabled the pixmap cache? I was thinking 
about removing it, actually.


Concerning your 2.3 screenshot, it is not only the blur that is wrong, 
many letters are not where they are supposed to be. Can you show the 
screenshot of 2.3.0rc2 without pixmap cache?

I recall there being some other issues with 10.12 (which I'll test tonight;
heading out now).  However, I don't have access to 10.13 currently.

It could be the macOS version then. I'm using the latest macOS 10.13.3.
There must be something different with the 2.3.0rc2, because 2.2.3 works
perfectly.

I don't recall having done so and don't see any QT variables set:

9997 jkulesza@tempest[~]> env | grep QT
9998 jkulesza@tempest[~]>

The .lyx example file and screenshots are perfect. Thank you, Zhexuan.

Stephan, are you able to reproduce? I forget whether you have a retina
display. In either case, do you have any intuition on whether the
difference between 2.2.3 and 2.3.0rc2 is due to our change of Qt library
or a change in our code?

Does anyone have suggestions for especific environment variables that
Zhexuan could test to see if it fixes things? e.g., could the
environment variables QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR, QT_SCALE_FACTOR, and
QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS be of potential use here? They are documented
here:

  http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/highdpi.html

Joel, did you by chance set one of those environment variables in the
past?

Dear Zhexuan,

Great, thanks for being willing to test! You can subscribe to
lyx-announce [1] if you want, but I made a note to myself to also send
you an email directly.

Thanks,

Dear Scott,

Thanks for the reply! Yes I'd be happy to test the 2.3.0rc1 to see if the
problem persists.

Dear Zhexuan,

Thank you for your persistence! I think that part of the problem is that
LyX developers do not all have access to retina screens.

Would you be willing to test 2.3.0rc1 when it is available in a couple
of weeks? It would be good to know if you still see the problem with
2.3.0rc1.

Thanks,

Scott

Dear Lyx developers,

It looks like this problem is still not fixed in the latest Lyx 2.2.3 Mac
version. Has anyone been working on this?

Thanks a lot!

Dear Lyx developers,

I've just installed the official release of Lyx 2.2 Mac version. Thanks a
lot for your team's hard work! It's really awesome and the text in the
workspace is super sharp right now. However, the display of inserted
figures in the Lyx workspace is still blurry and non-retina (see my
screenshot at http://i.imgur.com/mI849a8.jpg) on my retina display Macbook.
Are you aware of this problem and is there a plan to fix it in a future
version?

Thanks a lot!
