When opening a dialogue box within dreamweaver, for example the dreamweaver preferences windows, or CSS editor window, it appears very large, almost twice the size of my screen.
For example:
Screenshot:
I have checked my systems DPI Settings and they are set to 100%.
Im running windows 8.1.
My screen resolution is 1366 x 768
Any ideas?
ANSWER: I managed to fix this issue by deleting all of my fonts and replacing them with a fresh download from here: http://www.withsteps.com/2621/windows-8-default-font-download-repair-kit.html

I'm using Forms versions 11.1.2.2.0 on centOs 6.10 system
I have o problem with Layout editor, all the colors appear as black
The problem is only in Layout editor when I deploy form it shows normal colors in web browser. The problem appeared today, yesterday everything was working just fine
I had the same thing happen and was able to fix it by doing this.
Try navigating to "Edit > Preferences" then change "Color Mode:" from 'Editable' to 'Read Only - Shared'. Restart your FormsBuilder application and see if the canvas is still black.

just got a bit messy with my font size in Windows. For example the vba in excel:
font size in vba
I've tried all settings in “Control Panel->Personalize->Window Color->Advanced appearance settings”
Advanced appearance settings
It also appears in dialogue boxes from the Internet Explorer. The font is so small, that it is hard to read. Firefox and Chrome are fine.

Actually I don't know how it got to all this mess and I'll get more and more frustrated.
But maybe someone knows the answer to get it back.
Already set the font setting in Windows to default.
By the way I'm using Windows 7.
thx a lot
Just found the answer.
Delete and reinstall the windows fonts.

I am running PhpStorm 2017.2 on Windows 10 and experiencing a scaling problem where everything in my IDE (not just editor windows) looks bigger.
I am running it on laptop Asus Zenbook 13" with 1920x1080, by default this screens scaled using 150% (recommended) settings (Windows Display Settings).
The other 2 screens are 24" with also 1920x1080 resolution and the scaling setting is set to 100% (recommended).
The PhpStorm looks OK on the laptop screen, but it looks like it's also scaled to 150% on the other screens, even though it shouldn't.
I've tested whether actually "scale" settings on the other screens affect the PhpStorm appearance and for some reason changing the "scale" doesn't affect PhpStorm. Different applications (e.g. Google Chrome) or task bar are resized correctly.
Here is a screenshot, how big is the PhpStorm on the 24" screen (compare it to the task bar icons size).
Any ideas? I am back to Windows (after 7 years), had to switch from Ubuntu due to driver issues on this particular hardware.
EDIT:
After adding the -Dsun.java2d.uiScale.enabled=false as per #lena answer the size is now correct, but fonts are messed up. They're unclear on the external screens, but good on laptop screen.
EDIT2:
After doing this:
Shortcut of PhpStorm > Right click >Properties > Compatibility tab > Select "Override high DPI" - choose: "System"
PhpStorm looks sharp on the External screens, but doesn't on the primary laptop screen.
Try passing -Dsun.java2d.uiScale.enabled=false VM option to PhpStorm (this has to be done in *.vmoptions file, Help > Edit custom VM options)
Long story short, all images in browser are displayed wierd.
Here is the comparison between browser and window's image viewer on the same image (downloaded) :http://imgur.com/89XYxkj
This problem started on chrome, so I installed opera because the problem was persistent and found no answer to my question. Now after a while the problem started to appear on opera too. I'm baffled why this suddenly happened and why is persistent even after windows restart...
I have no idea why this would happen, so maybe you can help me.
Chrome on my machine started doing this around the same time. After some digging around and trial and error I think it's having issues with some monitor colour profiles.
I did manage to get a workaround in the end by changing the colour profile of the monitor to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. In Windows 8.1:
Control Panel > Color Management then select your monitor.
Make sure Use my settings for this device is checked.
Add the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 profile and set it to default
Restart Chrome and you should be able to see the proper amount of colours again.
Today, I installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional on a new laptop with a fresh Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit install. I, being quite used to the look of Visual Studio 2010, instantly spotted that something was wrong. It seems that the Visual Studio application is "zoomed in", in a way. The text is much larger (even though it says that the zoom level is 100%, and the text size is 10, which is the same as what I used before), and generally, so are the other windows like the Solution Explorer and Output console. The quality of the icons and images is also very bad.
Here are two comparison images (I wasn't allowed to post images, so some links will have to do):
This is the look that I'm used to. I see plenty of text in the windows, and the icons are fine.

This is what greeted me when I installed VS2010 on my new laptop. The icons look stretched, and I can fit a lot less code in the window.
http://i56.tinypic.com/35k0fo4.png
The screen resolution on my old computer is 1920x1200 and the resolution on my new computer is 1920x1080. (I resized the VS window on my old computer to about 1920x1080 to show the difference).
It looks like my image host resized the images as well, but you should still be able to see the difference.
Has anyone had the same problem? I'm hoping it's just some visual settings. If anything is missing, I will be happy to provide more information.
Thanks in advance.
It seems your Font Size DPI is at 150% on the second screenshot. If you right click on the Desktop and select Personalize > Adjust Font Size (DPI)* you should be able to see what it is currently set at.
Check
that your screen is at native resolution (there can only be one, the native max)
that your OS font is
at normal size
antialiasing (i believe windows calls that cleartype or something)
the screen density is 'standard' (usually 96DPI IIRC)
I strongly suspect the latter (the DPI setting). It's under
Desktop Properies
Display Properties
Display Settings
Advanced
DPI Settings
in my Windows
If you hold down Ctrl and roll the wheel on the mouse it will zoom it in and out. You can then get the desired size that you want. I hope that solves it.
EDIT:
Also if you go to Tools->Options and then under Environment->Font and Colors you can then customize the font size for the whole application.
I didn't find any setting that could case this effect.
Did you try reseting the settings of visual studio (Tools - Import and Export Settings) or Import the settings of your working maschine.
Maybe you have configured big-icons / big-font in windows?
