Eclipse High-Res on Retina

Eclipse looks very ugly on new Mac Retina displays by default. It can be made to run in High Res very easily though. Here's what you need to do:


  1. Context Click Eclipse app icon and select show package contents
  2. Open Contents/Info.plist in any text editor
  3. The file ends with
just before that add this: NSHighResolutionCapable
  • Go back to the folder that has Eclipse app icon
  • Copy paste Eclipse app folder (icon) to create a duplicate, remove the old one and rename the duplicate with the original's name. This is required for eclipse to read the changes made to Info.plist
  • Launch Eclipse and enjoy the shiny High Res display
