Brilliant. The year is 2017 and there are still knuckle-draggers out there coding as though no computer display ever had a DPI above 96. Fr'ex, Autodesk Fusion 360.

Because my display has a DPI of around 352, Windows 10 is set to 250% UI scaling, meaning I get to choose between blurry everything... or crystal-sharp everything but erratically sized elements. Imagine each of these on a 12.5" screen:

awoo.space/media/4cbrjTYPt1WjS awoo.space/media/56PAa0NmKt1Mo

Well, okay, imagine those if they _hadn't_ been auto-resized from 3840×2005 to 1280×668.

...Is the auto-resizing because of dimensions or filesize?
