Web Designer can't display correct on large monitor. Display Scaling cant be disabled

[Mark Savage]

Welcome to TalkGraphics

I guess at least one option is to upgrade to Windows 10. According to Wikipedia:



I have been using Windows 10 (Released July 2015) for almost 4 years and I have not had any problems. It seems fairly stable.

Thanks for your input.
Apparently even going to Windows 10 doesn't solve the display problem unless the software was written to perform on high dpi monitors.
Windows 10 is certainly better for high dpi monitors generally as the core system sorts it self out better than windows 7.
As I mentioned, for windows 7 you need to know how to change the settings in properties of the EXE file, so it can be made to disable display scaling. Unfortunately some software, including Web Designer, doesn't have the settings available.
I don't really think there is anyway around this unless Magix change the software but I was wondering how others are managing on high dpi large screen monitors.

I seem to remember Rob saying this was in the pipeline but that could be a long, long time.

can't speak for WD but no issues at all with designer pro and 27 inch 2560 x 1440m 2K monitor [at 100% windows scaling] - no need to adjust program compatibility settings
