Font appearance when connecting to iMac

[lesmikesell]

I’m connecting to an older 21″ iMac from a PC laptop with a smaller but higher resolution screen.  The font appearance changes depending on the window size/proportions but never seems quite right.  Are there any settings that would help snap them to the right match with the screen pixels for easier reading?

I see the problem now – the Windows laptop display setting is to scale to 200% to compensate for the small size and high resolution.   Setting it back to 100% makes the NoMachine Mac screen look the way I expected – but then the Windows apps and fonts are tiny.  It seems to work to right-click the shortcut icon, click properties>compatibility>change high DPI settings and then let the application override the scaling.

Hi, yes, this is what we suggested in other topics on the forums, for example here: https://forum.nomachine.com/topic/windows-display-scaling-nomachine-makes-it-blurry#post-44040

We are planning to support different scaling factors for Windows in the future. At the moment, our priority is version 9 with NoMachine Network and other important features planned for that. Development can most likely start after that.
