dpi challenges

About this tag
The tag 'dpi challenges' covers issues related to high DPI scaling on Windows, particularly for desktop applications. As displays with higher dots per inch (DPI) become common, such as the Surface Pro 4's 192 DPI display, legacy applications designed for 96 DPI often appear blurry, incorrectly sized, or unusable.
