Windows 10 Interface Scaling
Hey guys,
Had a quick question about the scaling of the UI on 4k screens. Is there a plan to have TVPaint work with the UI scaling functions in Windows 10? On the Cintiq Pro 24 (4k resolution), I'm finding TVPaint's scaling factor of 1 to be too small, while the factor of 2 is too large. I currently run the screen in the Windows OS at 150% scaling. Additional system specs below. Thanks!

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
I agree with this, I wish there were a 1.5 scaling ratio.

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
I strongly agree! This is especially a problem when using TVPaint on a Surface, which has limited screen space. The text is either too large or too small. We need a Goldilocks setting!
Thanks,
Scott

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
@chomp Right click TVPaint's icon and go properties / compatibility override high dpi scaling set by system. There are a few options there.
This way, only TVPaint does the scaling internally. Not Windows AND TVPaint together.
See if that helps!

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
Thanks for the reply CartoonMonkey! Unfortunately messing with those settings seems to lead to a large offset between the pen and the cursor. Almost as if the interface and the drawing area are mapped to two different resolutions.

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
Agree maybe 1.3 or so would work fine with me, certainly, 2.0 is very large and 1.0 is tiny.pixelchomp wrote: ↑06 Apr 2018, 21:52 Hey guys,

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
yes i tried it yesterday for a student who couldn't use tvpaint in 1 on her cintiq because she could not click the layer handles.
indeed 2 is to big and 3... well i almost could not get back out of that, because it was too ridiculously large, had to reset my config
a slider would be cool!

what was the idea for 3? 8K screens?

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
Thank you for your feedback. We will see what can be done about this scale 3 issue.

Re: Windows 10 Interface Scaling
Sorry guys, it's hardcoded to be an integer value, no intermediate value possible.
However the icons are loaded from files in the icons folder. Maybe someone has a george script to shrink the x2 icons ?
