Short description of error
On MacOS on a Mac with a HiDPI (Retina) display, when you click view animation, animations only take up the lower left quarter of the window (see screenshot). Even when resizing the window it stays this way.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
With any file: click Render -> View animation

Cannot reproduce here (linux, 970m, 435.21 drivers).
Reproduced with the same results on a different MacBook with radeon pro 5500M graphics enabled on 2.82 2019-12-06.

It seems likely to be related to hiDPI, which by default quadruples the pixels per pt.
Removed subscriber: @dr.sybren
Removing myself as subscriber, I don't know anything about the hiDPI handling on macOS and I don't have a mac to test with either.

@WilliamReynish, so were you able to confirm this?

Changed status from 'Needs Developer To Reproduce' to: 'Confirmed'
Yes, can confirm this on macOS using hiDPI mode (which affects all current Macs)

The issue still occurs with the latest 3.0 alpha build, any chance this patch could be committed for 3.0?

This also affects the new M1 MacBooks.
This still affects the latest 3.2 builds (version: 3.2.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2022-03-19 21:14, hash:
5bfdaaa800).Added subscriber: @AndyBCX
Sorry to bother again, but is there any chance the patch could be reviewed and applied? the problem still persists in the latest 3.5 builds (it is a bit frustrating running into this on an almost daily basis knowing that a fix is actually available).

There is an old patch for this here: https://archive.blender.org/developer/D9837
@blenderrocket I do recall looking into this once before. I can have a look into this and see if there is anything obvious from the previous PR. Feels like there may be an easy solution which just involves using the DPI ScaleFactor.
@Michael-Parkin-White-Apple hi, any update?
