I hope this helps anyone else that runs into the same problem. This fixed the micro fonts I was only getting with SDRTrunk on my Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon desktop on my MacBook Pro Retina display. This did not appear to affect any other apps.
GDK_SCALE=2 ./SDRTrunk/bin/sdr-trunk

Thanks, but I tried that and several other things that did not work on my MacBook. SDRTrunk did not change while others did. Tried font scaling too.

Thanks for the tip. I have an 11.6 Ultrabook with a 1080p display and default sizes are super teeny tiny on that, let alone in a Java based application that ignores normal desktop display scaling/etc.

Boatbod's OP25, however, likes to play nice with my display settings and font sizes, and uses less system resources and runs smoothly to boot. (y)(y)
