 Hi forum and support team,

could it be that Actual Window Manager is not high DPI aware?

I am trying to manually resize a certain window, and AWM shows the pixel size of that window next to the mouse pointer when dragging the window border. However, the pixel size shown is half the actual size of the window. (I am on multiple 4K screens with windows DPI set to 200%.)

How can this be resolved?

 Hi David,

At the moment, the feature that shows the pixel size of a window uses the DPI awareness of that window's process. Thus, if the program in question is not DPI-awared (and it seems so), the pixel size will be shown in virtual units, not physical screen pixels.

We have this issue in our to-do list so it will be fixed sometime.
