Using gnuplot with hidpi screen.

I am using gnuplot on a hidpi screen (276 dpi). The graphics I am reconstructing are hard to get right, the lines are too thin, the fonts and buttons are too small.

Is there a way to configure gnuplot to automatically scale these options for hidpi screens on startup?

gnuplot automatically loads an initialization file on startup, which you can use to change the default line widths, etc. It accepts the usual gnuplot syntax. Check help initialization

to see what it is named and where to put it on your system.



Use for example. set terminal wxt lw 2

to change the default absolute line width. The dimensions shown in the later graphics command are simply multipliers for the terminal setup. The width of points and borders / ticks are scaled accordingly.
