Image can be scaled – they might not be as pretty depending on the underlying resolution of the image but they will scale. You could for example increase the resolution of the images and scale them in the web page to suit the display resolution?

Images don't scale the same way, which is what Adam is talking about - divs are bootstrapped column width things which we can probably make whatever the current web4.5 term is; but you can't stretch the graphs - they need to be generated with a certain width etc. :)

Rather than change the layout just let the layout scale to the display size – div widths as percentages?

imo, 1920 will be common for quite a while yet.

any chance you can make the scaling formulaic, based on a config parameter?

that way you only have to do it once, forever.

(bonus:  mbp folks are happy, you can be lazy when 8k shows up, etc…)

Hi All,

Are any of you running 4k displays yet?

We've been thinking about how to handle larger displays and were 
considering jumping straight from the existing 1280px wide to 3840px 
rather than building a 'widescreen' mode on 1920px.

I think it would be most noticeable in the amount and resolution of the 
graphs we could display. We could effectively fit twice the amount of 
data into each graph. It would probably require quite a lot of work, so 
it's important we get the resolution correct!

(no, i don't care about your macbook pro's silly resolution)
