Using a High-DPI Monitor

Using a high-DPI monitor with OCHRE might cause some unintended effects, apart from the "tiny print" (which is to be expected at a high resolution). For best results with OCHRE:

  • Start up OCHRE using the Startup link specific for the High resolution (DPI) version under Alternate Versions on the main OCHRE website page. (Delete any previous OCHRE shortcuts on the desktop or taskbar before doing this.)

  • Right-click the OCHRE Shortcut and select its Properties.

    • Click the "Change high DPI settings" button

    • Click the checkbox to "Override high DPI scaling behavior." Choose "Scaling performed by" "System."
