Re: [platform-swt-dev] Avoid HiDPI-autoscaling on Windows

[Thomas Singer <ts-swt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Niraj and Lars,

It looks like you are right. My problem was that I've added the

  System.getProperties().put("swt.autoScale", "false");

at the same place where I was using

  DPIUtil.setDeviceZoom(100);

before and this was after having created the Display instance. Setting 
it before works. Sorry for the noise and thanks for your help.
