[BETA 28] BUG: Concentration mode won't display on Surface Pro

When going into concentration mode, the window disappears entirely. ALT-TAB will bring it back onscreen momentarily, then it disappears. Trying to move around with arrow keys will make random lines flicker up, but not the whole screen.

Working on a Surface Pro 4, with high DPI scaling override on (app is pretty much unusable without the override).

This was also an issue in BETA 27.

What scaling is your Surface display set at? I use this app on a 13-inch 4K display which is a similar DPI as a Surface device with no problem. My display is set to 3840x2160 scaled at 225%

First thing is to turn off all the Windows compatibility adjustments it sounds like you might be using…
Restart Windows.
Then open Scrivner and in File>options on the first tab click Enable HIgh DPI mode. Then on the Edit Tab, turn off Font hinting. Windows Font management in hi-res displays should work better than the QT font hinting…

Restart Scrivner.

At that point, composition mode does not have to fight against Windows compatibility settings.

I have not had to mess with Windows per-app scaling in the beta for almost a year.

Perfect! Thanks so much, that fixes it.
