JES box is mini. #101

Open Corytehllama opened 8 years ago

Corytehllama commented 8 years ago

Not sure what happened, but every time I download JES the entire box is small and hard to view. Then if I maximize the window it becomes almost impossible to see anything. I don't know if it's a matter of resolution or what, but apparently it only has happened to me.

Is this a Windows hi-res ("retina") display?

I've found some online threads saying that Java Swing doesn't work well on Windows hi-res displays. I've not yet found a fix.

Sorry it took so long long to respond! Anyway, when I don't maximize it, jes looks like image But when I maximize it, it gets even smaller! image As for what you're asking, I'm not sure what that is entirely.

I have several students running in to this issue now. The JES application shows up tiny on their screen. They are running Windows 10. Any thoughts?

If you're on windows, I did find a workaround for this issue:

  1. find the jre-win32\bin folder under JES, for most people this should be: C:\Program Files (x86)\JES\dependencies\jre-win32\bin

  2. right click on java.exe and click on properties

  3. click on the compatibility tab at the top, and then click on Change high DPI settings should look something like this:

  4. check the box under "high DPI scaling override", and change the drop down from 'application' to 'system' should look like this:

  5. hit 'OK', hit 'APPLY', and restart JES
