Did they ever fix the DPI scaling issues?
- jve 10y agoWhat do you mean by DPI scaling? I'm using VSCode on Windows on retina-y display with something like 200% scaling and no issues.
- Matthias247 10y agoI don't have any scaling issues on my Win10 4k 175% scaling setup. But unfortunately text rendering is still blurry compared to native editors due to the underlying Electron/Chromium renderer. Hope this will get resolved soon :'( https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/1896 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/1896
- ygra 10y agoI guess that's what they meant. While the scaled-up result has the correct size and avoids other artifacts of broken high-dpi rendering, it's, well, blurry. However, I suspect that this is more a Chromium/Electron issue than one for VS Code and other applications built like that. Heck, not even Chrome scales properly on high-dpi displays, which is pretty poor in my eyes.
- problems 10y agoHmm, Chrome looks perfectly fine on my high-DPI display (4k 150%), but both Atom and VSCode have major issues. Possibly an Electron issue I suppose, but I can't say for certain. Pretty ridiculous that almost every other app I run scales perfectly now, but text editors don't. Of course, Emacs, Notepad++ and Sublime all work perfectly so it doesn't impede me much.
- renke1 10y agoIt works okay on my X1 Carbon, but it's still not perfect because the interface font size cannot be changed. That means you have tweak your editor font size and zoom factor to get a good result.
