Title: Font size.
Post by: lyric1 on October 21, 2016, 02:59:40 AM

Curious as to why font size changes from time to time in DX11 when I log on.
Have not changed any settings I can log off then back in and it changes size.

Just logged on and off and back on again. Font was large then became small.
Photobucket site is down at the moment so I can't post the images.

You can post images, directly in this forum.

Expand the "Attachments and other options" link at the bottom of the posting editor.

That looks like DSR could be turned on to me.

You forgot to mention that you did check and we know now that DSR is indeed off.

It looks like things are a mess with Windows 10 A, which may be the problem here.

There was a new Windows patch last week. MS is aware of scaling issues with high DPI monitors and I think the big fix is coming in March if it didn't make it last week. I didn't look to see what was in that update.
