By Windows PC displays, I am not referring to Windows CE, or handhelds, etc. Clarification Some folks below mistakenly thought I was asking what the DPI (dots per inch) was on monitors. What I'm asking for is the value for LogPixelsX in the GetCaps API call : LOGPIXELSX Number of pixels per logical inch along the screen width. In th...
I have an verilog based test-bench, interfaced to 'C source using DPI. Now using DPI I am planning to write my whole firmware. To do this I need 3 things Register Read Register Write Interrupt handler As I understand, register reads and writes are tasks that I need to export from the RTL test-bench. And Interrupt handler (I implemented...
Hi all. I would like to programmaticaly determine the DPI of a user's display in order to show a web page at a precise number of units (centimeters/inches). I know it a weird request: it's for a visualization research project and it's kind of a control. We currently do it by having the user place a credit card to the screen and match a r...
I was wondering how would you print an image that's scaled three times its original size without making it look like crap? If you change the dpi to 300 and print it'll look like crap. Is there a way to convert it gracefully? ...
I currently use a VMware virtual machine (Windows XP) to debug my .NET WinForms applications under 120dpi. Very annoying. Does anybody know a way that gives me similar results under my 96dpi working environment? That is, can 120dpi mode be activated for a single process, or is there a switch in Windows Forms? ...
I have a Java application using the Substance LookAndFeel with Windows as the the target platform and I want to increase the DPI setting of my application without changing the system setting. I want to do this because I don't want to force the user to restart Windows and because many Windows applications seem to have problems with very ...
I'm using a compination of actionscript's getPixel and php's imagecreatetruecolor and imagesetpixel to generate a png image of an swf movie inside a browser. At the moment it will output a 72 dpi image at the same resolution as the swf movie, but I've been asked about the possibility of generating a 300 dpi image instead. Is this possi...
My Silverlight 3 application looks perfect in and out-of-browser with DPI setting in Windows XP set to Normal size (96 DPI). After changing DPI settings to Large size (120 DPI) the application looks the same in browser but scales up out-of-browser. The problem is that when running out-of-browser the hosting window size stays the same r...
Hi, I have a windows app that runs correctly in my PC that is 96DPI but when I use it on a PC that has 120DPI the forms transform and all their components scramble. How can I fix this? Thanks. ...
I want my application to have a zoomable element which will allow the XAML elements to be viewed at 25%, 50%, 100%, 200% etc, I just need to alter the DPI of the XAML but am unsure how to do this on just part of the XAML (i.e. the element to zoom). It will work just like the designer view in Visual Studio when you can zoom into the contr...
I just want to know if the pixel unit is something that doesn't change, and if we can convert from pixels to let's say centimeters ? ...
We have a few legacy applications that were written in Delphi 7. We've had a few requests over the years to support custom desktop dpi settings in these applications but we have been able to dodge the bullet up till know. Well we can't anymore. When users set their desktops to say 120dpi some of the controls "fall off" the application o...
I have a bunch of diagrams created using a Java diagramming tool that I wrote - they are mostly black and white diagrams, with the blocks in aqua, and occasional other colours. They are currently being saved as JPG files, and I want to insert them into a book that I am preparing for Print On Demand. The book is an OpenOffice ODT file,...
I have an MFC application. When running it on Windows 7 I realized that when changing the display percentage to meduium - 125%, I have a TextControl which is cut off (end of sentence doesn't appear.) How can I fix this? I could enlarge the size of the control on the dialog, but I'd rather do that via the code. My application is locali...
Is it possible to set the DPI of an application programmatically or the DPI only possible to set through the system preference? Note: My application's GUI is coded in MFC and .NET forms. Update: After some research I have found no way of doing this so I have to agree with the only answer here; it cannot be done. ...
I've been trying to use JasperReports to print in a resolution above 72dpi, with no success. I need to use some resolution above 72dpi because I'm going to print in those pre-formatted adhesive labels, which need a certain level of precision when setting the positions. But, as JasperReports can only use pixels, and AFAIK only supports t...
Somehow forms and controls created through Visual Studio and the designer have the great ability to scale themselves depending on the current DPI/font size of Windows. One portion of my UI is a tab control full of dynamic pages and labels/inputs generated depending on the user's selection. When these are created, they use hard coded size...
I have developed an application that looks great on my computer but when I install it on other computers with different resolutions and DPI settings, it looks terrible. Controls overlap eachother and it's just miserable. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid this? ...
Hello, we have a problem related to the manifest file and the property "android:minSdkVersion". The issue is: If our platform is 2.0 and we use the property "android:minSdkVersion=3" (3 = sdk 1.5) the graphics get corrupted (In details, the application's resolution get reduced to a 2/3 part of the original size, this is, when the reso...
Hello, I have a QWebView which displays some HTML content and I used CSS to style the text: body { font-size: 10pt; } The window with the QWebView also has a QTextEdit field, for which I have set the font like this: QFont newFont; newfont.setPointSize(10); myEditField->setFont(newFont); Unfortunately, the text displayed in the QWe...
