Anaconda/Rstudio displays at low resolution on mac retina screen

The Rstudio installation contained in Anaconda 4.3.1 is displayed at low resolution on my macbook with retina screen.

Other anaconda apps, but also the standalone version of Rstudio look fine.

Any ideas on how this can be solved?

This is a legacy from the days of us supporting macOS 10.7.

Open your RStudio.app/Contents/Info.plist file and add:

<key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key><true/>

.. near the end, just before the </dict>

After that you may need to refresh macOS's cached information after editing and before relaunching.

From Terminal:

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -v -f ${CONDA_PREFIX}/Applications/RStudio.app

I have added it to the code so next time I rebuild it this doesn't get missed.

Same issue. My provisional solution is to run RStudio from the command line. First activate the desired workspace, then run RStudio:

source activate workspace-name
RStudio
