![]() ![]() ![]() Without adjustment, an application, especially a graphics-based one, designed for one resolution will appear either too large or too small when run at another resolution.Īutomatic scaling seeks to address these problems by automatically resizing the form and its child controls according to the relative font size or display resolution. The most common display resolution is 96 dots per inch (DPI), which equals 100% display scaling, but higher resolution displays supporting 125%, 150%, 200% (which respectively equal 120, 144 and 192 DPI) and above are becoming more common. ![]() In this example, these elements will also appear relatively smaller.Īn analogous situation occurs when an application is designed for a certain display resolution. Furthermore, the size of user interface (UI) elements that contain text, such as the title bar, menus, and many controls are dependent on the font used. Text elements, such as titles, menus, text box contents, and so on will render smaller than other applications. For example, if the application is designed using Tahoma 9 point as a baseline, without adjustment it will appear too small if run on a machine where the system font is Tahoma 12 point. Without automatic scaling, an application designed for one display resolution or font will either appear too small or too large when that resolution or font is changed.
