issuses caused by changing dpi

[caoxiaosheng]

How to reproduce?

1. Set Windows Dpi to 125%(The original value is 150%);
2. Open the winforms example "Winforms.exe"
3. Click "Labels" or any other example
4. The form size of "Winforms.exe" becomes small

I am using

Live-Charts version	*0.9.6*
.Net Version	*4.5*
Windows	*Win10 1607*

this is a real pain on high dpi screens... can't work in Visual Studio with this control on display.

I tired to fixed this by using this code ` using System.Runtime.InteropServices; [DllImport("shcore.dll")] private static extern int SetProcessDpiAwareness(_Process_DPI_Awareness value);

    private enum _Process_DPI_Awareness
    {
        Process_DPI_Unaware = 0,
        Process_System_DPI_Aware = 1,
        Process_Per_Monitor_DPI_Aware = 2
    }

   // High resolution monitor
   SetProcessDpiAwareness(_Process_DPI_Awareness.Process_DPI_Unaware);

` But I hope there is a better way to solved this problem =(

I have the same problem. However the @Sourcephy solution worked, thanks.

I took me a lot of time to find our that the Live-Chart library caused the resolution issues. In VS2019, VB.NET, WinForms, W10. I solved it by modifying the app.manifest as follows:

<assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0"
   processorArchitecture="*"
   name="ApplicationName"
   type="win32"/>
<description>Optional description of your application</description>

<asmv3:application>
	<asmv3:windowsSettings xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings">
		<dpiAware>false</dpiAware>
	</asmv3:windowsSettings>
</asmv3:application>
