Win 11 Scaling issue - Low ressolution menu UI

ssashton — Sun, 07 May 2023 17:20:16 GMT

Hi,

I recently changed to Win 11 and I'm seeing some issues with the scaling of Fusion 360 at 4K resolution. GPU is GT 1030 and Windows scaling is set at 225%. The menu and UI looks pixilated and blurry. It's very noticeable on the view cube, though you might need to zoom in the images.

I can't easily go back and check, but I'm sure on Win 10 it looked better.

If I enable High DPI Scaling in the settings I get a more crisp UI, the view cube looks great, but now the buttons aare teeny-tiny!

I have also tried the Windows High DPI over-ride and it does exactly the same as the setting in the Fusion360 menu.

Okay.. so if I compromise I can use 200% scaling and it looks sharp and also a good size 🙂 The rest of Windoze apps look a little bit small but I can live with that.

I've reverted to Windows 10. Now everything looks great as standard and I notice 'High DPI Scaling' is enabled by default in Fusion360 settings.

Hey @ssashton

This is a known issue and is being addressed.
Here is the work around presented currently.

1. Use 125% scaling on the 4K monitor - which will work well for all other apps, desktop (and now fusion).
2. Set Fusion to start with windows (or manually start) (eg put a shortcut to Autodesk fusionlauncher.exe into startup folder0
[ Fusion is: in C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Local\Autodesk\webdeploy\production\6a0c9611291d45bb9226980209917c3d\FusionLauncher.exe and Startup is: C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup ]
3. With Fusion booted without 'High DPI set' in preview - now set 'High DPI' in preview to ON (tick) .. and restart as asked.
4. Fusion is Sharp (no jaggy or fuzzy screen) - as it did before April 23 update. Remember to turn off 'High DPI set' in preview before Fusion is shut down, ready for next day .. 1. 2. 3.

Thanks,

Thanks for your reply!

I did see this in the other thread but 125% scaling looks tiny on the 49" TV I use as a display, probably as I sit a few feet away. 225% is optimal.

For now I've reverted to Win 10. I'll try again later I suppose.
