  1. Not able to scale a Program to 100% when system is using 125%


    Good dayI have bought Tyranobuilder app from Steam and installed it on my laptop.This app is used to create visual novels.My system is using 125% scale for the monitor but when I use Tyranobuilder my screen is to small for the program when doing certain actions on the app.If I use 100% scale there is no Issue and everything works fine.The problem is that the text and icons is to small for me if I run at 100% the recommended scale is 125%.I have tried the DPI scale options in the properties of the app shortcut but there is no change when I open it.Maybe i am doing something wrong or is there an

    When un-docking laptop, Windows scaling changes to 125% but still shows 100% in settings

    I have a 1920x1080 laptop display, and 2 extnernal 1920x1080 displays. When I dock, I do not use my laptop display. Scaling is set to 100% for all monitors when in use.

    When I un-dock, and open my laptop display, scaling changes automatically, and visually appears 125%. I go to my display settings, and it says 100%. But when I change to 125% (which is the "recommended" setting) then back to 100%, my display then looks as it
    should.

    This is quite repeatable.

    • I would prefer scaling does not change when I un-dock
    • Why does does he actual scaling not match what the setting is set to?

  3. How to make Windows 10 draw a window at 100% scaling, rather than 125%?

    I have a small, high-resolution display that is set at 125%. However, one program I want to run consistently draws it's start screen at 1024x768, which is a tad too big for my screen.

    I want this program, and only this program, to render at 100% rather than 125%.

    THIS IS NOT A DUPLICATE. This program is DPI-aware and thus "Disable display scaling" won't work on it.

    So, I see two options:

    1. Tell Windows to inform this program it's running at 96 DPI, and draw it as such.
    2. Have Windows scale the program down to fit.

    How can I fix this?

  4. Not able to scale a Program to 100% when system is using 125%

    Scale System UI without scaling non-windows programs


    Hello all.
    Recently multiple programs (Google Chrome and Spotify for example) have started scaling accordingly to the windows scaling level (I have it at 125% because at 100% text is still readable, but annoyingly small). The problem I'm having with the programs mentioned above is that they everything has become too big and unnecessarily zoomed in, making them look cluttered.
    How would I disable scaling on those programs, or disable scaling on any non-windows programs altogether?
    Thanks.
