8321,Windows version of VirtualBox should declare itself DPI-aware,Sophie,,"I use a custom DPI setting on Windows and as far as I can tell, VirtualBox is fine with high DPI settings. However, it doesn't [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd464660%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#declaring_dpi_awareness declare itself DPI-aware], meaning that on Windows 7 by default it will be subject to DPI Virtualization, where the OS gives the app an off-screen 96 DPI surface to draw on, which the OS then scales up for display. Needless to say, this results in blurry interfaces. Sometimes I don't mind this (I'd actually love it if we could have a way to scale up low resolutions to the screen when it's full-screen), but at other times I don't want to do this, so I think it's probably a good idea if VirtualBox were to declare itself DPI-aware.

Normally I'd get around this by setting the compatibility properties, but my version of VirtualBox is a 64-bit app and as such, Windows 7 doesn't allow me to change those.
