#21293 new defect

UI confused by multiple DPI settings

Reported by: EPinci Owned by:
Component: GUI Version: VirtualBox-7.0.4

Guest type: all Host type: Windows

Description

Upgrading from 6.1.x to 7.x the UI seems "doubled in size". I have 3 monitors, main set to 150% scale, laterals set to 125% scale. Seems that the UI gets confused by this (?) and ends up with very large fonts.

Hi!~ I created an account to report the same issue but in the opposite direction. I have 200% scaling on a 2160p display, and 100% scaling on a 1440p display and am getting the same issue as you with the huge fonts. I changed Windows 10's advanced DPI scaling settings to "Application" and instead of massive text I get 50% sized text, misaligned click boxes, and drop-down menus appearing on different screens.

Currently, virtualbox is nigh-unusable for me:
