DPI Scaling

Scope

• Guided Tour (Desktop Assistant) content object > Guided Tour Style macro > DPI Scaling property
• Simulation content object > Simulation Start macro > DPI Scaling property

Purpose

This property shows the screen scaling that was in effect when the simulation was initially recorded. It is captured during recording.

Prior to the 20.11 release, simulations could only be recorded against a screen that had the DPI scaling set to 100% (see Display Properties in Windows). In the 20.11 release, this limitation was removed, so this property was introduced to capture the scaling value. This then allows SAP Enable Now to correctly scale the simulation during playback.

There were some issues recorded with SAP Enable Now trying to compensate when a recording captured at one DPI setting is edited at another, which resulted in bubbles or highlights being mis-aligned, or resizing not 'sticking' (unless you Save immediately after making the change), but these should be resolved by Hotfix 1 in late January / early February 2021. In the meantime, you can try changing this setting back to the recorded value, if SAP Enable Now changes it during editing.
