Adding/Using HiDPI custom resolutions

Hello, I have a monitor lg 27ud69p, native resolution 3840x2160
In the settings of the mac os system, I set the resolution to 2560x1440 hidipi, the interface works fine, but there are problems with Adobe Photoshop products, after effect, the correct display of the picture is not 100% navigator.
This can be fixed except for how to use 1920x1080, 3840x2160?
 
but there are problems with Adobe Photoshop products, after effect,

I have no experience with this software.
Probably related to your hardware and software configuration (none of which is specified in your profiler).
You should probably open a separate thread in a the appropriate desktop forum (assuming it is a desktop).

the correct display of the picture is not 100% navigator.


No idea what you mean by "100% navigator".

On the screenshot I showed the problem
Monitor resolution 3840x2160, in the settings Sierra 10.12.6 hidipi 2560x1440
But in adobe programs it is not scaled correctly, also in safaris and in other programs that work with bitmaps


I work as an artist and therefore it is very important for me

Your screen shot is meaningless to me.
Perhaps you should explain the problem clearly.

Hi ,
Here are two screenshots from my screen, I circled in red so you understand the problem
The same 3840x2160 image is used
And you can see that at 100% zoom the picture is not displayed correctly when hidipi 1440p hidipi, picture small
When 1440p hidipi it does not display correctly

When 1080p hidipi it is displayed correctly

When 2160p it is displayed correctly


Is there a solution?

Might be a problem specific to the app you're using.
No experience with it.
 
Perfect guide! Using this I am running at 1920x1080 on HiDPI using my HD630.

Only minor niggle, I guess, is the overall slow UI. Now correct me if I am wrong - a more capable gfx card would be able to handle that well? Is it worth investing in a discrete graphics card for that? Any recommendations?

No idea without "Problem Reporting" files.
You did not attach them.

:) No problem really, just overall slower UI over the network. A niggle perhaps?

I am using HiDPI on a headless macOS Server running Intel Core i5 7400 and HD630 graphics. Everything works well. Just that when I am remote'd into the system (Apple Remote Desktop) with HiDPI over my Gbps LAN, the UI response is slower than it was with native 1920x1080, even when downscaling it to 1680x1050 HiDPI.

Network bandwidth is not an issue IMHO... so I wonder whether having to render 3360x2100 is too much for the HD630. And if so, would a discrete card be better at this? My attempt at sparking a discussion.

Now you've just made the whole question/scenario that much more complex.
I'm not sure why you would want HiDPI for a server. Pretty images that important when configuring your server?

But I do think that HD630 (and other Intel graphics devices that Apple doesn't use) may not have enough power for a good HiDPI experience, which may explain why we haven't seen a MacBook Air with retina display. But there are also many ways to configure your system incorrectly in a way that makes it worse.
