| | Blurred WLM with high DPI Hello - per a recent posting on the Windows 7 blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/e7/archive/200...esolution.aspx) , I decided to up my DPI to 120 and am very pleased with the results overall. Everything from photos and internet sites are much crisper and easier to read. Everything except for the WLM Beta - the title bar is clear, but all menus, text and icons below the title bar are blurred. Attached is a pic showing an IE window in the background and WLM in the foreground. Does the new WLM work at anything besides a default DPI? |

| | Re: Blurred WLM With High DPI Thanks DSH - after reading your note, I searched a bit more and discovered that if you set a custom DPI AND check the box to "Use Windows XP style DPI scaling", it seems to clear up the issue.
