High DPI display support #24

Open geary opened 6 years ago

geary commented 6 years ago

Software 1.27

On a high DPI display using Windows 10 display scaling, the CPS software runs in "blurry" mode, making everything harder to read than it could be. The app should be updated to be "high DPI aware" so it can render crisp native high-DPI fonts.

In the meantime, here a partial workaround for recent versions of Windows 10: Right click D868UVE_1.27.exe (or whatever your CPS app is named) in File Explorer or the Start menu. Select Properties, go to the Compatibility tab, override the high DPI display scaling and set it to System (Enhanced).

On my ThinkPad Yoga 460, 14" WQHD at 225% scaling, the app looks like this with default settings (click for full size screenshots):

After overriding the scaling, it looks like this:

Here are the Properties panels for the new April update of Windows 10 (high-DPI screenshots, sorry). The Fall Creators update has the same "System (Enhanced)" option, although the property panel is slightly different. I didn't test it on that version.
