    DPI 150%+ Issue with some apps being very big.


    Hello,

    I am having trouble running Guitar Pro & MuseScore at 150%+ DPI, everything is big, with Guitar Pro at 100-125% everything is equally small (No Difference in 100% vs 125%)

    I tried every combination of the DPI settings in the properties menu of Guitar Pro, it doesn't fix the issue.

    See Screenshots

    I am on Build 19041.329

    :)

  3. Mouse too big - Scaling DPI 150 or more - Windows 10

    Hi,

    I realize that you want the cursor enlargement to stay at 100% instead of 150%. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Please answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue:


    • Did you manually enlarge the cursor size to 150% or does this happen automatically?

    • Does the issue occur when you reduce the resolution from “3840x2160”?
    If you have an external mouse connected then you may want to unplug the mouse and re-plug the mouse to check if that helps.

    If you have a laptop then you may also want to plug in an external mouse to check if the issue persists.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.

  4. DPI 150%+ Issue with some apps being very big.

    Fall Creators Update did not fix my blurry text when using higher DPI issue...

    I've noticed myself some stuff has improved but not everything. Noticed the other day some menu's still blurry while Window itself is correct and this is within Windows systems itself not third party apps. I would say much of the day to day stuff is good
    now, its the deeper parts of Windows that still is being worked on I guess. Much of that legacy stuff from pre Windows 8 and it appears with every release Microsoft is moving much of stuff like classic Control Panel to the more modern Settings system. I have
    a Dell XPS 13 at 150% DPi and no doubt anything not DPi compliant shows up big time as looking very bad.
