High DPI Monitor Issue
« on: April 18, 2019, 09:16:07 AM »
If developing on a PC with a High DPI monitor (>1920) then you will get graphics changing sizes between design time and run time.

This is fixed by adding a key into the Windows registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\devenv.exe]
"dpiAwareness"=dword:00000000
