This seems related to https://github.com/p-e-w/finalterm/issues/368.
Yes, specially the capture from @mottoper, where in that case the cursor is abnormally small.
I just want to add that changing the cursor size or cursor theme in gtk-3 does not have any efect neither.
Final Term's "cursor" is not a cursor in the GTK sense but rather just a rectangle, so I wouldn't expect it to.
Thank you very much, Philipp.
I have been trying to find a way to play with the default size of the cursor, but simple searches on "cursor" or "rectangle" don't seem to help. Where can I start looking at so that I can make a contribution to this issue?
@p-e-w: I also have this issue on a MacBook Pro using Gentoo with i3wm. You were wondering on #375 about what differences are there between those systems that have issues with HiDPI displays. So if you let me know which details you are interested in, I can collect them for my setup and then paste is somewhere.
Well, the window manager and desktop environment are probably the key parameters. AFAIK, no Linux DE (not even GNOME) has flawless HiDPI support yet, so I guess what we are seeing are just quirks in the various implementations.
The cursor shape apparently does not change depending on the font used in finalterm, or the font of the gtk-3 theme. In a high resolution display it is huge:![ft](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/674675/4715233/c224d486-58fc-11e4-9317-fdba976a61e5.png)
