Auto adjust DPI or window size?
« on: November 08, 2010, 07:10:27 pm »
As the title says, most of the program still uses a custom font size instead of reading the DPI setting from system. The problem is I use my desktop at a high resolution, and the only way to make most of the programs readable is increasing the font size.

Let me illustrate two of the problems:

Text barely readable compared to other programs that use the same font size (taken from system) on all windows. Here an explorer window open with Alt.Binz behind.


Overlapping text on some small windows that use DPI settings from system ( ??? why only some?).


As the program suits most of the people, there is no need to rewrite any of the code, but a BIG LETTERS skin perhaps?  ;)

Oh, and thanks for all the recent updates and improvements.

I have asked for this mistakenly a couple of times. The search response fonts are so small on my LCD resolution I barely can read them. And I just got an eye doctor check and was 20/20. :)

I'm sorry if it was requested before, didn't find anything on my searches thought. I will change my request from increasing font size in general to match system's to making a skin with a larger font size then.  :)
