Re: Tiny display in Win 8.1
From the feedback of two users, it looks like that the HiDPI Java Web Start version works correctly, but if you use the installer of version 5.2, setting com.eteks.sweethome3d.resolutionScale value in SweetHome3D.l4j.ini file might not be enough and still give incorrect results. If it's the case, you might have to reset the fonts size too, adding for example the 4 last lines of the following example in SweetHome3D.l4j.ini file:

-Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.resolutionScale=2.5
-Dswing.defaultlaf=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel
-Dswing.plaf.metal.controlFont=Dialog-11
-Dswing.plaf.metal.userFont=SansSerif-11
-Dswing.plaf.metal.systemFont=SansSerif-11

That works beautifully! I had set -Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.resolutionScale=2, but some fonts were huge. I have now set the other parameters as suggested (keeping resolutionScale=2 though), and everything looks great.

Re: Tiny display in Win 8.1
Just to say that on Windows 10 on a Surface book I had the same issue, but this .ini file fix worked perfectly - Thanks

Re: Tiny display in Win 8.1
I am running a Lenovo Yoga and am having the problems mentioned above.
After applying the SweetHome3D.l4j.ini fix I got some relief. Everything displays correctly except for the list of furniture items used in the plan - which is displayed as a list in the lower left panel of the screen.
This list is scrunched up.


Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Re: Tiny display in Win 8.1
Hi.
I made this change to sh3d and must say the text size is much better for me, but, if i open - close - reopen a separate function, eg, photo or create shape, each time i open it the text size enlarges until it becomes unusuable, any idea why this would be.
Thanks
Mike
