Solved: Re: RealPresence Desktop giant icons in Windows 8.1 High-DPI... - HP Support Community

Anonymous · ‎02-05-2015

Hi,

When opening the RealPresence Desktop client in Windows 8.1 using a high-dpi screen (Thinkpad X1 Carbon Touch), the text and icons in the settings are gigantic, making it impossible to read all text or change most of them (see attachment).

Changing the windows compatibility settings for the app to "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" makes no difference.

Is there a way to return the size of text/images/boxes to a sane level?

Thanks

Hello ag0001,

I checked this with our developers and the issue you are seeing is caused by the Real Presence Desktop app only to support 96 or 120 DPI.

Future versions of RPD will support higher DPI but I do not have an ETA for this yet.

Hello ag0001,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

It is always useful to include the currently used software version as issues experienced may already be addressed in a newer release.

This also allows yourself and others to check against current software release notes.

It would also be of interest what screen resolution you are using.

It is somewhat difficult to check the version given the display probelms, but according to the Device Manager it's 3.1.0.44431

Screen resolution is 2560x1440

I did a search before but did not find anything about high dpi displays.

Thanks

Hello ag0001,

the latest currently supported version is 3.3 so I would try this first and then get back to us.
