QLC+ with high DPI screens

[criwo]

Hi Forum,

I am a longtime usere of QLC+. I recently renewed my computer, now I am using a Microsoft Surface Pro with a high resolution display (2736 x 1824).
I have checked this link: https://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN ... swers.html
But somehow it seems I can not get it working.
I have added this to the QLC+ shortcut: C:\QLC+\qlcplus.exe SET QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1

My old QLC+ desk is still shown very slow on my new computer, as pixels are mapped 1:1.
Can someone help me and explain the steps from link above? Maybe I did something wrong.

Best regards!

... he QLC+ shortcut: C:\QLC+\qlcplus.exe SET QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1

This one is wrong. You have to set an environmental variable.
Verify with [windows]+[R] cmd + [enter]
Now you get a dos box. Enter the command SET + [enter]
All environmental variables will be listed.
For the Qt libraries to work correctly, it needs this variable: QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1
manually enter "SET QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1"
and start QLC+.
Now, this should work.

The document you are referring to does the same, but not manually: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c "SET QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1 && START /D ^"C:\QLC+^" qlcplus.exe"

Thank you, GGGss! But unfortunately also your well described method does not change the look of QLC+ on my machine.
Runnning the command "SET QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1" in the command windows is accepted, meaning there is no error message.

and what if you use the scale factor of 2? Then everything should be the double size.

Thanks again!
I gave it a try, and it has not changed anything. Does the scaling need to be enabled elsewhere?

[GGGss]

I was wrong ... it's supposed to be boolean. So 0 or 1.

Anyone else with an idea, what could be the missing link?

Is someone else using QLC+ on a high resolution display?
