Unexpected UI Scaling Issue on High-DPI Displays in Advanced Installer 22.1

Hi everyone,
I recently noticed that some dialog boxes and installer UI elements scale incorrectly when using Advanced Installer 22.1 on a 4K display with Windows 11 (DPI 150%). The text becomes misaligned, and a few buttons overlap or disappear. I’ve tried modifying the project’s theme and font settings, but the issue persists after the build.

Has anyone encountered similar scaling or layout problems on high-DPI screens? Any recommended settings or workarounds would be greatly appreciated.

Hello and welcome to our forums,

Not quite sure whether I understood this correctly - is the problem with Advanced Installer itself or with the setup that you build using Advanced Installer?

If the first one, please note that we have fixed some DPI issues recently. Could you please try a newer version of Advanced Installer and let me know if that helps (22.1 is ~1year old)?

Best regards,
