I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
I just installed a try out version, but can I adapt screen resolution? I added an example, where outside the photo the screen is sharp (4K screen), but the photo is not 4K, whilst this is so important for astrophotographers, and a benefit of the screen.Â

Thanks. Yes, it is a retina display: 21.5-inch (4096 x 2304, Intel Iris Pro Graphics 6200 1536 MB graphic). I noticed the pixels, which are normally hardly visible with the retina display. It is on an iMac, but the effect must be the same on an Macbook with retina display.
Thank you very much for reporting this issue. I have fixed the implementation of image drawing for HiDPI screens like the Apple retina displays. I was able to test this successfully using a Macbook Pro 2016 with a Retina display.
APP 1.068 will be released tomorrow with this fix, check the second release note 😉 :
Probably due to the recent update with graphics driver, the Retina (4K) resolution is lost again in V1.079 (it was fixed in 1.068) on an iMac (21.5" screen).
In the top split of the picture below, the star has a lower screen resolution than the screen (e.g. the question mark). Looks like just FHD.
In the bottom split of the picture, the same star is enlarged to show that the photo resolution is not limiting it.
Hope you can fix this again, because APP is so beautiful on a Mac (with full resolution).

The current macOS version is Catalina 10.15.4. I have updated it on my Mac shortly after its release on April 8th, but I don't recall if the previous version (10.15.3) did not show this issue. Moreover, I also updated APP to 1.079 immediately after its release on April 15th. I checked the release notes of Catalina updates, but no specific mentioning on screen drivers or resolution.
