Low font quality with Ultra-Wide monitor #82

Closed Hexer10 closed 3 years ago

Hexer10 commented 3 years ago

I've been using BasicPawn on my laptop and so far it was all fine but now that I've switched to my pc(windows 10) which as a ultra wide monitor (3400 x 1400) the font quality of the application seems a bit poor, I've attached a screenshot so you can get a better idea: image I'm not sure if you can perceive from the screenshot but here it looks a lot worse in BasicPawn rather than in IDEA. (I've tried using the same font in both IDEs but it didn't help)

Thats because BasicPawn isnt DPI aware yet. It will scale the whole app by your Windows DPI settings, making things blurry in the process. I recently got a 2K monitor so i can finally test stuff and make it DPI aware. This probably takes some time however because im busy at the moment. Of course, you could override the DPI settings for the app, but some fonts and controls might glitch or look deformed.

Thanks for the reply! Scaling the application DPI from the windows properties definitely worked, the startpage and the bottom tabs look deformed but the editor is displayed nicely image image

I'm currently working to make BasicPawn DPI aware. Seems pretty good so far:

You can try it out in the dev build (plugins not published yet): https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Timocop/basicpawn/builds/36911753/artifacts

If you are testing the dev build, please report bugs and glitches if you found any, thank you.

Hexer10 commented 3 years ago

I'll make sure to try the dev version out, so far it works nicely
