joshkay Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I think it would be great to add retina support. I think this could be done using a plugin rather than written into core? Perhaps we can start a discussion about developing it here if people are interested? I guess that the plugins already have access to the viewport information since some of this is available to the Delivery Limitations Plugin. Then you'd need to scale a copy of the image when the user uploads a double-resolution image producing two copies, one with @2x appended to the basename. Then when a request comes in the server would check the viewport (fallback?) and serve the correct image. Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewatfornax Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Why not just have multiple banners, with appropriate delivery limitations set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshkay Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Sorry, wasn't subscribed to updates. Yes, I could do that but the image tag/CSS also has to be updated, otherwise the image will just appear at twice the size. Ideally it would simply add the attribute data-src2x="[email protected]" to the image tag, alongside the link to the original source.

andrewatfornax Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Ah, okay, I see - shows you how little work I've done (i.e. none) for Apple devices. Sounds like something for us to add on the roadmap. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmanke Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I second (or third) this feature request! :) I'm currently trying to get retina images to display in an app on iOS/Android. Using CSS to display retina images works great on websites, but isn't as successful in apps (so far). Does anyone have any workarounds for displaying retina images at this point?
