hello , everyone:

 I recheck and retest about the patch about high dpi of windows R GUI ,  IMO it works mostly. Last thing I am not sure is screen reader.

 I download NVDA screen reader, and try it on high dpi R GUI , in NVDA Speech viewer,  it seems it can read R GUI normally, but since I konw so little about screen reader before.   I couldn't confirm NVDA Speech viewer indeed work on high dpi R GUI.

Could anyone who know screen reader , help me  to confirm the high dpi patch not break screen reader.

I put the patch https://github.com/armgong/misc-r-patch/blob/main/dpi-c-code.diff  .

If anyone need the compiled binary on windows x64 , I can upload it on github repo also.

thanks,

Yu Gong

Thanks for this work. My suggestion would be to provide those
pre-built Windows binaries to maximize the chances to get the feedback
you need. The amount of people ready to, or have the setup to, build R
from source, especially so on MS Windows, is much smaller than those
who are willing to give it a quick try.

provided.
