Annoyingly, I don't see any difference between the x86 and x64 versions so making it hard for me to do any debugging/testing.

Strange....   have looked in the source and can't find any reference to TCS_HOTTRACK in the sourcecode. Also there is no real difference in the source for x86 and x64 in any of the changes I made, so guess I need to look at the Compile/Link part of the project.

I have made a couple of changes to the manifest which I now have made equal to the original build for testing.
Could either of you you try these version of SciTEx86 and SciTEx64 and see whether that makes any change?

ps: The issue I have with this test version is that when these standard lines are in the manifest:

<dpiAware>true</dpiAware>
        <dpiAwareness xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">PerMonitorV2</dpiAwareness>

The ICONS are tiny:

PSS: Found the option: toolbar.large=1 to correct the small Iconbar

 

Thanks Jos

Both x86 and x64 have the tab highlighting working properly. The tab bar visibility is perfect again. The icons are definitely large... Thanks Jos!

I can confirm that Both x86 and x64 ,have the tab highlighting working properly.

Thanks you both for testing. I have replaced the SciTEx32/86.zip with these last versions.

It has become very obvious (to me) that Jos will never get this DPI Aware stuff correct until he gets his hands on a 4K monitor.

The SciTE DPI aware is now back to the defaults used by the official SciTE distro so I am fine with the way it is now and one less mod to maintain.

I am glad to hear you are happy with it, as is.

Since I do own a 4k monitor, I just delete all DPI Aware stuff from the manifest.

You did this because the icons are too small even after setting the property toolbar.large=1 ?

Yes. and the 1st thing I checked was toolbar.large=1

large =1 was the default setting. For giggles, I tried zero and 2 with no improvement.

Not in the standard install I provide till now, but will change.

So the only issue is the icons or also other things like "zoom level"?

I keep up with your beta releases so large=1 was a default setting.

Only the icons are an issue and since I do use them, seeing them is imperative.

Could you show me a screen capture of their size with toolbar.large=0 and toolbar.large=1, so I can see how much the differ for my Laptop screen?

I'll assume you mean with the DPI Aware stuff intact. I'll be back to edit this post shortly.

Yeap ....  thanks!  

[Shark007]

DPI intact with setting of large=1

DPI intaact with setting of large = 0

with no DPI setting 1

with no DPI setting 0

 

Notice the loss of quality text when no DPI in use

[Jos]

In the first 2 there is no difference and they both look like I have for toolbar.large=0. Did you restart SciTE after changing to toolbar.large=1, as I expect the Second to be larger as I have?

The Ico size is about what

Yes I have seen that and that is why I prefer to use the standard setup from the official distro.

[Shark007]

Jos, hold on making any determinations from those screenshots . . . I may have screwed up and mixed and matched x86/x64 exe's and dll's

[Shark007]

New screenshots follow using 64bit release.

setting of 1

setting of 0

It seems to have lost the DPI Awareness. I checked the EXE manifest to be sure I had the original and the manifest does have the correct info.

I'm going to reboot my system to see if that makes any difference because turning off and on again is always step one.

[Shark007]

after rebooting, I used the SciTEx64.zip and here are pics

setting 1

setting 0 (seems no different)

Now, interestingly, I used SciTEx86.zip to produce these screenshots

setting 1

setting 0
