Display scaling in Windows not drawing GUI in high resolution #3880

Version

Windows: slic3r-master.2017.04.13.937.b78ccc6.zip

Operating system type + version

Windows 7 x64 Using a 4k monitor, and 150% scaling in Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display

Behavior

The Slic3r GUI is upscaled and looks blurry, similar to the issue on retina/5k macs. Everything still works properly aside from that.

Is this a new feature request? No

wxWidgets 3.1.0 release notes mention:

* Better support for high DPI displays, especially under Windows.

But I'm afraid our Windows build server already uses 3.1.0 (@lordofhyphens?)...

lordofhyphens commented 7 years ago

Afaik it does use 3.1.0. An easy way to confirm is to look at the dlls.

@ade can you copy all of the .dll files from local-lib\lib\perl5\MSWin32-x64-multi-thread\Alien\wxWidgets\msw_3_1_0_uni_gcc_3_4\lib (starting from the extracted archive) into the root Slic3r folder and see if that has any effect?

Tried it, that didn't make any difference.

@ade I solved blurry text in Slic3r setting DPI scaling to "Application"

solved-small

@fcannizzaro Thank you, but that option does not seem to be available in Windows 7.
