About this tag
Per-monitor awareness is a DPI scaling feature in Windows that enables desktop applications to render correctly on high-DPI displays, especially when docking, undocking, or using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). Without per-monitor awareness, applications can appear blurry or incorrectly sized when moved between monitors with different scaling factors. The Windows 10 Creators Update introduced improvements to per-monitor awareness, allowing applications to dynamically adjust their rendering based on the DPI of the monitor they are displayed on. This tag covers discussions about implementing per-monitor DPI awareness, mixed-mode DPI scaling, and best practices for developers to ensure their applications look sharp across multiple displays.

This is especially noticeable when docking and undocking or when using remoting technologies such as Remote...- News
