If like me you dont habitually wear glasses, larger desktop icons and text can make the desktop more usable with display scaling at 125% but unfortunately this makes DW2 display incorrectly.

The work around is to change display scaling to 100% manually before playing as I have to do with Aurora. Microsoft's compatibility options in shortcut properties offer to change display scaling automatically on a per app basis but they simply dont work in my experience.

If anyone does get them to work I would love to know how you did it!
This should not be required on any system as long as you are on 1.0.1.6 (or later).
Yes, thats fixed it, well done!
