Everything is too small on QHD+ screen?

Post by dusf »

I have increased DPI from 96 to first 192, and then 384, and although this made the fonts on the screen bigger, it did not increase everything. Next, after searching the forums, in ~/.wine/system.reg, I changed "LogPixels"=dword:000000c0 to "LogPixels"=dword:00000120, but his made no difference.

Is there another way I can resolve this issue please?

I would suggest filing a WineHQ Bug against the offending elements or applications- with screenshots...

Bear in mind that native Windows applications may have similar Hi-DPI scaling issues. Especially if they are developed with alternate toolkits...
So it would be worth cross-checking on Windows 7 / 10. Doing this comparison work - would highlight the deficits in the current Wine implementation.
That information (screenshots) would also be useful in the WineHQ Bug you file.
