Thanks everyone.

All of your inputs definitely going to help us in providing full High DPI support for Dreamweaver.

I would request others who are on High DPI monitors, do post your system info.

Currently using DW 2015 CC due to too many issues with 2017, including the preferences panel would span like 3 monitor widths, certain elements not lining up properly, etc. Basically making it unusable.

A note on other 2017 CC apps, Illustrator and InDesign both have a fairly large interface which is good and bad I guess. Photoshop is substantially smaller pretty much everywhere, but it's OK. Dreamweaver is the only one that gets completely borked in Windows and unusable. Now, what I don't understand is why ALL the programs aren't High DPI aware and ALL interfaces look the same (font and scale wise). There should be some pretty good consistency among all of them. I know coming from Mac there were never these issues.

Problems that i have:

Without "disable display scaling on high DPI settings":

Everything is blurry

With "disable display scaling on high DPI settings" enabled:

1. Options menu opens in too big not visible window. (unable to use options at all).

2. Menus like "snippets" and others like that, selecting and text options are on different positions make it very hard to chose anything.

3. Find (ctrl+f) hides some of the buttons.

4. Other small issues.

Photoshop at 200% option is perfectly fine without the need to enable "disable display scaling on high DPI settings".

Impossible to use Photoshop CC 2017, too big or too tiny UI. I've try all suggested ways, even using external manifest file (blurry text), nothing worked. Strangely, illustrator CC 2017 worked fined after changing scale setting in  Preferences!

Too bad, I'm downgrading too.

Please let me know when there is a fix. Many thanks!

Same issues here...blurry text when using at 125%, if you use compatibility setting on the .exe, it makes the file tree unusable (the collapse folder pointers do not align for example)

I have temporarily moved to Sublime with DW color scheme...I have been using DW happily for 10+ years.

Hi everyone,

Please update to the latest version of Dreamweaver 2017.0.1 where most issues with code coloring have been addressed.

See Dreamweaver 2017.0.1 is now live  for more info.

This document  https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/customize-code-coloring.html has been updated to reflect changes.

Thanks,

Thank you everyone for sharing your platform details.

It would be great if you could also share size of your monitors, default scaling/resolution information (if not already added).

That would definitely and greatly help us achieving this milestone.

Fantastic - I installed the latest  beta build 10100 (after joining the pre-release program mentioned in the message above) and the hiDPI issue is much improved.  System text (menus, panels, etc.) still a bit little for my liking but a VAST improvement.  So pleased that this issue has been worked on.

[lnayal]

Hi All,

Delighted to announce that DW 18.0 with Hi DPI full support for Windows is now live

October 2017 release to Dreamweaver CC is here
