[Bug 44992] New: Setting dpi in winecfg has no effect on application
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44992 Bug ID: 44992 Summary: Setting dpi in winecfg has no effect on application Product: Wine Version: 3.6 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: gordon1drake(a)yahoo.com Distribution: --- I am using a "low" resolution monitor set at 1280x1024 and I have been setting the dpi in winecfg to 128 otherwise the fonts are too small. With version 3.6, however, the application still looks like it is set at 96 and changing the value in winecfg has no effect. The application is called Scrivener and it does have the ability to set the font and size of the menu and other panes. It also has the ability to zoom on the editor pane. Unfortunately, it now has to be set much higher than usual. It should be noted that winecfg, task manager, etc do change. There was an instance when the font did not change in these but I can't reproduce. It may have happened when trying to upgrade an existing wineprefix. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44992 --- Comment #1 from Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.org> --- Probably the app explicitly specifies that it doesn't support high DPI, we recently started respecting that setting. Ultimately such apps will get pixel-scaled, but that's not implemented yet. You can override the app by setting its execution options, something like this: [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\your-exe-name-here.exe] "dpiAwareness"=dword:00000001 -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

There are minor differences in the width of some elements, but all is good. I've attached a screenshot of the task manager with the small font. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
