It might be an impossible thing for now but I don't have any idea about this topic and so I think to ask might work.

I am new on Mac world. I have a MacBook Pro with Retina display. It lets me big resolutions but such big resolution doesn't fit for all applications. For that reason, I might need bigger resolution for some apps and normal resolution for another. If I could set different resolutions to different desktops, I might have a chance to catch this.

Is there a trick or a special program somehow to make this possible?

Yasin, Are you having a problem with the scaling that is built in to OS X? If a program isn't Retina compatible, OS X is supposed to scale it. Is this not working for you? The reason I ask, is that a question like yours is incredibly difficult to get an answer for. If the software exists, and no one here has ever heard of it, you're not going to get an answer. You're kind of gambling. My answer would be , no, there's no software that does this. Here's an article that might help you out: wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/10/… – Everett Nov 4 '12 at 17:22
