Resolution issue

[stoddabr]

Hi, not sure exactly where in the repo to put this so I'm putting it in the base.

It's still usable but I found obviously a GUI layout issue while running the windows executable

Just started working with this kit and there was an issue with the Syntacts Windows UI. I think this issue is caused by the surface pro having a weird screen resolution setup because I've had similar issues with other window executable UIs (mostly older software if that helps).

Running on:

• Windows 10 Pro x64 version 10.0.18363 Build 18363
• Surface Pro (2017 5th generation I think?)
• 2736 x 1824 display at 200% (recommended) scale

Thanks for letting us know! We will need to address DPI scaling to solve this issue.

In the meantime, I believe windows allows you to disable DPI scaling on a per-app basis:

Can you give that a try?

I just tested on 2560x1440p display @ 200% scaling. My window did not have any black area like yours, but the UI did not scale correctly (it was quite small). I've implemented DPI awareness in an another application before, so I should be able to resolve this relatively soon. Hang tight.

@epezent Has this update already been resolved?

No it never happened. I would deprioritize this.
