Almost every source about Win32 dpi says that you need to load new scaled fonts.
I tested a simple application (main window and a child ListView, written in pure WinAPI) on WinXpSP3, Win7 and Win10 and in all cases the OS always automatically set the correct font size (and even non-client areas) both at startup and when changing the system scaling in runtime. The only thing I had to change manually was the size of the windows themselves and the size of the icons in the ListView.
The application manifest contained
dpiAware True/PM
dpiAwareness PerMonitorV2, PerMonitor
And I'm a little confused. It turns out that manual processing of fonts is needed only for owner-drawn controls?
I was trying to change a Safari favorites icon that gets displayed when opening a new tab. I changed some icons by changing the default images in the "/Users/MyUsername/Library/Safari/Touch Icons Cache/" Images folder. Most of the replaced icons are displayed perfectly but some appeared (I think) to be identified by Safari as a transparent background icon and proceeds to display it as one—even though it's not.
This is the icon that Safari displayed correctly
This is the icon that Safari displayed incorrectly
Any idea how I can get Safari to display it as it should?
I've followed the criteria of the icons such as having a .png extension and being 144x144.
This is the info for the image used for the CNN icon
This is the info for the image used for the Triplebyte icon
What I've tried:
Reducing the size of the image
Changing the color profile
Is this issue actually related to the website I'm trying to get my icon for or an issue with the image file?
I tried using another image that was used as an icon by another site. Safari also displayed it as a transparent background image. It turned out that the image file wasn't the issue.
The solution to this is to just use an image that actually has a transparent background.
I need help with the text size for my outlook add in.
I have a table view in my add in which is unreadable with bigger screen resolutions. Is there a way to zoom so the font size gets bigger?
With a selected email from my inbox it is possible to zoom with the zoom slider in the bottom right corner. Is there a way to activate the zoom slider at any time? Or is there any way to access and change/set the font size outside of the email body?
It looks like your add-in is not DPI-aware. Desktop applications using older Windows programming technologies (raw Win32 programming, Windows Forms, Windows Presentation Framework (WPF), etc.) are unable to automatically handle DPI scaling without additional developer work. Without such work, applications will appear blurry or incorrectly-sized in many common usage scenarios. To make things working better you must read the following articles:
High DPI Desktop Application Development on Windows
Writing DPI-Aware Desktop and Win32 Applications
Most probably the table view is used on a windows form, see Automatic scaling in Windows Forms for more information.
In my UWP app I have long pages with lots of content that user can scroll down. When modifying the XAML of a single page I'd like to see all the content of the page in Visual Studio Designer. I can change the Device option into device with higher resolution to view more content but this still leaves most of the content hidden. In the past when developing Windows 8.1 Store Apps there was an option to set device display size to auto. When developing UWP app this autosize option does not seem to exist anymore.
Is there a convenient way for setting the Desinger width and height to be the same as those of the page?

Xaml designer has not provided this set option that make designer width and height to be the same as page. But you could make your xaml designer display with suitable size that could make the page fill the visible area. We could select Fit all option where in the ZoomAutoSuggestBox.
When an image is opened on 4chan.org, it is not automatically resized by my browser (Chrome).
How is this done?
There is nothing in the link to a .jpg file in 4chan.org that will cause or prevent resizing. Chrome resizes large images to fit the browser window initially, and then you can click to make it full size. There are no native options to change this, but there are several extensions available for changing this behavior. Maybe you have one of these that is site specific?
