High DPI screens

Fonts look blurry on high DPI screens with the font sizes set > 100%. Any from Agilebits reading this and have an ETA on a fix?

    Hi, @pds22.

    What DPI setting are you using, on what size screen, and in what version of Windows, please?

    Thanks for your help!

    This is on windows 8.1. It's a 13" screen with 3200x1800 resolution screen - 275dpi. I've seen the same problem on 13" 1080p screens too. I believe the software needs to be updated to scale correctly on hidpi screens. Of course I can set the font size to 100% but then its too small to read.

    Wow, I've got a 15-inch monitor set to 1630 by 1004, and everything looks great. (I don't think I have the option to select a setting that large...er, small...well, you know what I mean.) Anyway, I'll mention it to the developer. Thanks!

    It's an awesome screen - Samsung Ativ 9 plus. However, I had the exact same issue on a Sony 13" pro, which has a 1080p screen. You can kind of fix it by going in the file preferences and select 'disable display scaling on high DPI settings', which is not really a solution. As retina screens become more common on PCs, you will be hearing about this more and more. Thanks.

    Thanks for the additional input! I've brought it to the attention of Development.

    (By the way, I trust your forum avatar doesn't reflect your level of satisfaction with 1Password! /:) )

    Nope! The system chose it for me. Guess it thinks I'm grumpy :)

    :D I'm glad it was a random selection!

    I've been reminded, by the way, that the problem of fonts being less than ideal at high resolutions is a known issue, which we hope to resolve in the next major version of 1Password for Windows.

    Thanks for your patience as we work to get version 4 ready.
