Bug Description

I am running version 2.70 on macOS Sierra. Certain images within Calibre itself are distorted and look "zoomed-in". I have attached a screenshot that illustrate what is happening.

Are you using a High DPI (retina) display?

Yes, I am using a Retina display. However, I used Calibre on the same
Retina display with experiencing this issue. I noticed the zoomed in icon
about 8 months ago and I have had my MacBook Pro with Retina display for
more than a year.

Thank you,
David

Are you using a custom icon theme (via Preferences->Look & Feel->Change
icon theme)? Or have you installed custom icons manually in the calibre
config folder?

I am not using a custom icon theme in the screenshot. However, I have tried
several different themes (all changed through the Preferences section,
never through the calibre config folder) and the "this book will be
permanently deleted" dialog box always has the image zoomed in. I can send
you more screenshots using different icon themes if that will help.

Hmm, works for me on my OS X machine. Although I dont have a retina screen, in OS X one can manually force a montor to high DPI mode. The icon renders correctly in that mode after my fix. Is there anywhere else in the UI you notice mis-rendered icons, perhaps I can spot some commonality.

Hello,

As far as I have been able to see, this is the only mis-rendered icon I am
seeing anywhere. However, in reference specifically to Calibre, I used to
see mis-rendered icons elsewhere, such as on the Preferences window in the
upper-left hand corner. That icon has been fine for a while now. I had
forgotten this previously.

Thank you.
