Hi,

I am new to this community and hope, that somebody could help me.

The resolution (and the general structure of some navigation elements) of ProjectLibre are not working quite well on my new laptop, which is a Lenovo Y50-70, with Windows 10 Home, and a resolution of 3840x2160. As you can see on the image I have added there are some display issues and overall the symbols and font are really small (compared to a "normal" sized symbol in the upper left hand corner of my desktop). I already heard, that Java-based programs like ProjectLibre might not work well in higher resolution environments in Windows 8 and Windows 10, but are there still any experiences / solutions you have that could help me to resolve that problem?

Thank you in advance!

I just got an update to Win 10, and I think the ability to override DPI scaling is a new "feature" ....

Right click on your ProjectLibre icon & select open file location.

Right click on the .exe shortcut to get the properties dialog box & select the compatibility tab:

Properties dialog box
Select the "Override high DPI scaling behavior" box

and then select "System" from the pull down menu below.

Select "Apply" & re-open ProjectLibre

The scaling on my high DPI laptop screen now looks normal.
