Issue description

First, thank you for making this app - it's extremely helpful for quickly debugging missing pck assets, which is my primary use case for now.

Fonts are blurry when opening the app. NSHighResolutionCapable is set to false in Info.plist. When set to true, the fonts become clear, but the text is so tiny as to be unreadable. Increasing the window size does not scale the fonts. However, it causes eye strain for me to use the app with the blurry fonts. Can you please support high DPI Retina font scaling?

Steps to reproduce

Run the app in macOS.

I have yet to find a decent solution to DPI scaling. Do you have any tips?

@nikitalita Well I usually develop game apps, and configure everything for scaling, while keeping high DPI enabled. Never had a problem. Of course it helps that I only develop from macOS (while deploying to the others). I can't speak for non-game applications, but there is a LOT of useful information on this page, including a section on high DPI:
