Caution

Use Microsoft.VisualStudio.Utilities.DpiAwareness instead.

Helper class for scaling coordinates and images according to current DPI scaling set in Windows for the screen.

This class can be used in assemblies that can't take a dependency on Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.14.0 (or later) This class doesn't use any VS-specific interfaces or services.

The code running in Visual Studio or other appids should not be using this class. Instead, it should use the static DpiHelper class from Microsoft.VisualStudio.PlatformUI namespace from the VS Framework assembliy.

Usually the code needing Dpi scaling functionality provided by this class will want to access it by calling the members of the static DpiHelper.Default instance.

Properties

BitmapScalingMode	Retuns the BitmapScalingMode algorithm to be used for resizing images in WPF. This allows the shell to control the algorithm depending on the DPI zoom scale, and allows the user to override it via registry settings like General\BitmapScalingXXX = (BitmapScalingMode)value, with XXX the zoom factor in percents, e.g. BitmapScaling150, etc. Note that for WPF scaling, there is an additional registry value that applies for zoom factors > 200%, UseBitmapPreScalingXXX
Default	Returns a DpiHelper class suitable for scaling images designed for 100% DPI zoom levels (96dpi). The static member can be used in bindings like DpiHelper.Default.BitmapScalingMode or direct properties/methods calls like DpiHelper.Default.LogicalToDevicePixels(), similar to the way the static class DpiHelper in Microsoft.VisualStudio.PlatformUI namespace can be used in VS-specific assemblies to bind to DpiHelper.BitmapScalingMode or call DpiHelper.LogicalToDevicePixels()
DeviceDpiX	The screen's (device) current horizontal DPI
DeviceDpiY	The screen's (device) current vertical DPI
DeviceToLogicalUnitsScalingFactorX	Converts to the horizontal logical units scaling factor.
DeviceToLogicalUnitsScalingFactorY	Converts to the vertical logical units scaling factor.
DpiScalePercentX
DpiScalePercentY
ImageScalingMode	Retuns the ImageScalingMode algorithm to be used for resizing images in WinForms/Win32. This allows the shell to control the algorithm depending on the DPI zoom scale, and allows the user to override it via registry settings like General\ImageScalingXXX = (ImageScalingMode)value, with XXX the zoom factor in percents, e.g. ImageScaling150, etc.
IsScalingRequired	Returns whether scaling is required when converting between logical-device units
LogicalDpiX	The helper's logical horizontal DPI
LogicalDpiY	The helper's logical vertical DPI
LogicalToDeviceUnitsScalingFactorX
LogicalToDeviceUnitsScalingFactorY
PreScaledImageLayoutTransformScaleX	Return the horizontal scale value that should be used with a LayoutTransform/ScaleTransform to scale back an image pre-scaled in HighDPI with DpiPrescaleImageSourceConverter in order to obtain crisp results
PreScaledImageLayoutTransformScaleY	Return the vertical scale value that should be used with a LayoutTransform/ScaleTransform to scale back an image pre-scaled in HighDPI with DpiPrescaleImageSourceConverter in order to obtain crisp results
TransformFromDevice
TransformToDevice
UsePreScaledImages	Returns whether images should be pre-scaled at zoom levels higher than 200%, using NearestNeighbor up to the largest multiple of 100%

Methods

CreateDeviceFromLogicalImage(Bitmap, Size, Color, ImageScalingMode)	Creates and returns a new bitmap strip from the logical System.Drawing.Bitmap scaled for the device units When displayed on the device, the scaled image strip will have same size as the original image strip would have when displayed at 96dpi. This should be used for converting imagelists bitmap strips instead of simply scaling the bitmap, because the resultant bitmap strip size may be different from just upscaling as bitmap N * Math.Round(width * dpiscale) != Math.Round(N * width * dpiscale) This may happen depending on the image width because dpiscale is a double not an int.
CreateDeviceFromLogicalImage(Bitmap, Size, ImageScalingMode)	Creates and returns a new bitmap strip from the logical System.Drawing.Bitmap strip scaled for the device units, using NearestNeighbor interpolation. When displayed on the device, the scaled image strip will have same size as the original image strip would have when displayed at 96dpi. This should be used for converting imagelists bitmap strips instead of simply scaling the bitmap, because the resultant bitmap strip size may be different from just upscaling as bitmap N * Math.Round(width * dpiscale) != Math.Round(N * width * dpiscale) This may happen depending on the image width because dpiscale is a double not an int.
CreateDeviceFromLogicalImage(Icon, ImageScalingMode)	Creates and returns a new icon scaled for the device units. When displayed on the device, the scaled icon will have same size as the original icon would have when displayed at 96dpi.
CreateDeviceFromLogicalImage(Image, Color, ImageScalingMode)	Creates and returns a new bitmap or metafile from the logical System.Drawing.Image scaled for the device units. When displayed on the device, the scaled image will have same size as the original image would have when displayed at 96dpi.

GetHelper(Int32)	Returns a DpiHelper that can scale images created for the specified DPI zoom factor. E.g. If you have images that were designed for multiple resolutions (e.g. one image for 96dpi, other for 192dpi, etc), and need to use the 192dpi image to scale it to the actual display DPI, you'll need to call GetHelper(200) to get a DpiHelper that will scale correctly that image.
