Unfortunately, with scaling enabled, CodeSys IDE looks noticeably blurry and lacks the crispness seen in other applications. At 100% scaling, the interface becomes sharp again, but everything is uncomfortably small. Notably, CodeSys is the only application on my system affected this severely.&lt;br/&gt;

From a bit of research this could be due to the use of old windows forms or something?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have found a temp workaround that sort of works but not great. You have to run CodeSys in compatibility mode and adjust the DPI settings, this works ok and the editor is clear and crisp again but the actual tool bars are small like running at 100%&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyone got any tips for running CodeSys on high res displays with scaling?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary></entry></feed>
