In working with Seattle, if "Enable High-DPI" (in Project/Options/Application) is checked, Annotations' text will appear small



(it is a little hard to see here unless you compare the annotation font against the axis label font--it is smaller, but should be the same size, or see that the annotations above take up less width than the annotations below).

But if I change it so that it is unchecked, it appears normal size:



I much prefer the first image (much cleaner), but the Annotation text is too small.

Is there a way to get the annotation text to not change its size based on DPI?

Hello Ed,

Can you please arrange a simple example project we can run as-is to reproduce the problem here?
Thanks in advance.

I have attached a demo. Click in the chart to add color bands and annotations.

To see the difference, I compiled with the DPI settings checked and unchecked and renamed the EXE. I then ran the program on my Dell XPS 13. (I could not see it on my development computer).

I'm not sure I understand what that means. Could you clarify?

Yes. We'll check what's wrong, we'll see if we can do something to improve that, we'll investigate where the problem comes from...

Just checking that you could reproduce the issue?
