RealmWorks is not high-DPI aware, which causes issues with newer displays. Just got a new Dell XPS 13, which I love overall, but RealmWorks displays poorly on it.

By default, Windows 10 will employ display scaling on high DPI settings. This makes RealmWorks look blurry and washed out.

You can disable display scaling on high DPI settings for RealmWorks by right clicking on the shortcut for RealmWorks and selecting that option under the Compatibility tab in the Properties window. But this leads to a worse result with tiny menu text, small and out-of-place icons, and very tiny cursor graphics.

The other option is to lower your display's DPI settings, but then you lose the benefits for having a high-DPI display and degrade the look of the apps the support it.

I have no idea what effort is involved, but any modern software should be high-DPI aware and support auto-scaling on high-dpi displays.
