That’s what this signature is for:

```julia
Makie.preferred_axis_type(plot::Plot{GraphMakie.graphplot}) = plot.attribute[] == something ? Axis : Axis3

```

> The latest Makie version has been in the works for about a year, and now it’s finally here. It includes many new features, bug fixes and internal improvements, such as high-DPI support for GLMakie and WGLMakie,

Many thanks for all the hard work that went into this. I have a laptop with a UHD screen and an HD second monitor and the scaling now works well on both screens with the default font sizes, etc.

I ran into a small issue:

When I move a large GLMakie window from my large external screen (32") to my laptop screen (16") then the window is automatically resized, and the drawing is not readable anymore.

It is ok and smooth for small enough GLMakie window (that fits on the smallest screen).

I did not notice this behavior with the previous Makie version.

Congratulations on this release! I am really looking forward to deleting my custom duplicate themes for high-DPI and low-DPI displays!

Dynamic rescaling is part of the high-dpi behavior. It depends on what the OS scale factors for your two monitors are, and what the `size` of the `Figure` is. But it should usually be _better_ not worse

Actually, it is fine. I just need to resize my figure to fit the smallest screen.  
Thank you again for this great work.
