Dolphin does not scale properly until I logout.

When I use my 4K-TV as my main display and play Dolphin it works great, but I have this weird issue that when I turn my receiver off both my other 1080p displays starts to flicker on and off, and I have to pull the HDMI to the TV. After that, Dolphin looks like this when I start it, and only way to solve it is by logging out.




Chrome and other apps are not affected by this, they scale properly when closing  them and reopening them.
Is it possible to make Dolphin more aware of DPI changes?

This is likely not a Dolphin bug but a but in Qt itself... I'm not sure what we can do about it.

Alright, thanks for that!

It's very odd that it persists through program restarts though. I don't suppose you have a second screen (that isn't your TV) and could try moving it there?

Yeah, I thought it was weird that a restart didn't solve it. I do have a second screen, another 1080p screen, dragging it there doesn't make any difference sadly.

That's because of the scaling setting of Windows 10 that automatically adjusts itself according to the size and resolution of the monitor/TV you have plugged to your PC at the same time.
If you plug or unplug a display the Windows scaling will be adjusted by Windows automatically.
And when the scaling option is touched, some things will have their scaling screwed up, only a log off or a restart can fix it.

Every iteration of Windows 10 gets a little better with DPI scaling in general, but it still has issues, even though it's almost 3 years old now.
