Is there a way to save the current Windows DPI setting to a variable?

[Cariboudjan]

I'm working on a project. It uses InputText.dll. I also override the Windows DPI to give better pixel clarity with Rainmeter. If I could access the Windows DPI value, I could negate the extra large font problem by using:

Code: Select all

FontSize=(16*#DPISETTING#)

Also curious, is there any plan to replace InputText.dll with something built-in to Rainmeter itself?

This plugin will return the current DPI scale as a variable: https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?f=128&t=31145

I found the solution.

Code: Select all

[MeasureRegistry]
Measure=Registry
RegHKey=HKEY_CURRENT_USER
RegKey=Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics
RegValue=AppliedDPI
UpdateDivider=-1

Gets the DPI value from the registry.
