    Hello,

    I have a Windows laptop with 3840x2400 screen, with system scaling set to 200%. The only way I have found to get Solibri to respect the scaling is to override the Solibri.exe High DPI Setting via right click -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Change high DPI settings -> Override high DI scaling behavior and set se scaling to be performed by system. Screenshot:

    This makes the GUI size appropiate and readable, but the icons are awfully aliased and all the text a bit blurry. I did try the new 24.9 VM setting (-Dsupported-screen-scales=1.0,1.25,1.5,1.75,2.0), but this seemed to have no effect whether I had the DPI override on or off.

    What is the intended way to get the scaling working?

      You could try opening Solibri first and with Solibri open change the scale in Windows to 175% and back to 200%.

        Hello @Ville-Reima

        Can you check if you have this line in vmoptions file?

        -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=1.0
        

        If so, please remove it and restart Solibri.

          I used to have that before 24.9, I removed it today and replaced it with -Dsupported-screen-scales=1.0,1.25,1.5,1.75,2.0 (and restarted Solibri), but no difference.

              That… does actually work! Setting the scale to 100% and scaling upwards with Solibri open fixes the issue, now the icons are sharp etc.

              Thank you Jakub!

                I am afraid, that after closing and reopening Solibri it can go back to ‘standard’ scale. We are investigating that.

                  -Dsupported-screen-scales=1.0,1.25,1.5,1.75,2.0
                  this is the default and not needed. Only needed when the scale is more than 200% (2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3.0)
