Custom Configuration File-Display Scaling

A few months ago you helped me to ignore the user dezimal point setting by adding a line to the Custom Configuration File.

Now I do have a similar request:

My LabVIEW-app should run on an Winwows-instrument that is using 125% display scaling.

This scaling makes the GUI of my LabVIEW-app too big and I should scale it down.

Is there also a Custom Configuration File-setting, that allows to ignore the local setting and scale the LabVIEW-app at 100% ?

 

With thanks and regards

Petr

Not sure of your scaling issues, but you could write a custom ini file for your exe. In this ini file you specify the fonts and font sizes. That helps alot with some scaling issues.

Something like below in your exe INI file. (Depends on font and size you want. Pick a font that should be on the majority of systems)

 

FPFont="Segoe UI" 24
appFont="Segoe UI" 24
dialogFont="Segoe UI" 24
systemFont="Segoe UI" 24
BDFont="Segoe UI" 24
