Incorrect scaling on high DPI displays

Open Xyene opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

I have a 4K (3840 x 2160) display, and am running screencloud on Windows 10. It mainly works, but the text that provides a help message uses a much larger font than is necessary to display at this resolution.

It would appear the issue is Windows' app scaling feature, where it comes preset at 250% scaling on my laptop, and handles scaling by itself. When I set it back down to 100% the text displays properly (though the rest of Windows is unusably small).

I noticed a similar issue, though less pronounced, on a 1080p display — perhaps something could be done to disable text scaling on Windows machines? The OS handles it well in other applications, so I assume it's something specific to screencloud.

Fix scaling bug (tested on linux) - set environment parameter QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1 before run ScreenCloud

QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1 screencloud
