By default, Visual Studio 2010 marks all MFC applications as http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2010/03/11/mfc-applications-now-default-to-being-dpi-aware.aspx - high DPI aware . This means that Windows no longer stretches the GUI when the screen DPI is set to more than 100%, because it assumes that the application handles scaling internally, as explained in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd464659%28VS.85%29.aspx - this tutorial .

Does Toolkit Pro obey the rules for this?

Thanks

I thought this would be a simple yes or no question, so I'm not sure what to make of the lack of response.

I suppose if the developers don't know if their toolkit is high-DPI aware, it's safest to assume that it isn't.

Hi,

Yes, its high-DPI aware and in last releases all our samples have call

CXTPWinDwmWrapper().SetProcessDPIAware();

to notify Vista/Windows 7 about it.

But CXTPWinDwmWrapper is not needed when you include this setting in the manifest, right? VS 2010 has it by default, I think...

Right, you don't need call CXTPWinDwmWrapper().SetProcessDPIAware(); if you have rigth manifest.

CXTPWinDwmWrapper also has some more wrappers around dwmapi.dll.
