Android Studio HiDPI support for Linux

I'm struggling with HiDPI support of Android Studio 2.1.3 for Linux Mint. What I know it should be possible to enable Android Studio's HiDPI support by adding -Dhidpi=true flag to /opt/android-studio/bin/studio64.vmoptions Unfortunately it doesn't change anything on my machine, the UI is still very small.

In my case, changing the font size in Android Studio 2023.3.1 RC2 (Jellyfish) on Linux Mint 21.3 partially worked (see https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007994999-HiDPI-configuration for more information):

  1. Go to Settings > Appearance and Behavior > Appearance > Use custom font (or Customize > Accessibility in case you have no projects open)

  2. Set font size to 24 (on a 4k display this setting worked for me)

However, in this case the font size in the editor tabs remained too small.

Resetting the "use custom font" checkbox and setting Settings > Appearance and Behavior > Appearance > Zoom to 175% fixed the scaling.

I had the same problem, and I did not manage to "enable" hidpi for Android Studio.

Therefore, I run Android Studio like so:

$ xrandr --dpi 192; android-studio&

Or whatever you prefer instead of 192, of course.
