Hello again,

We've had some issues where the upper right and left images on the installer are coming out fuzzy on some larger monitors and on computers that have a setting which enlarges the text & other objects. (such as Windows 7 'Display' setting of %125 percent) which more and more newer computers are using.

Right now the only image type that can be used is .bmp. My boss believes that if we could use .png it would scale better.
Also, he asked if there was some 'scale' option for the images. I don't see any but, maybe I'm missing something.

Or do you have another suggestion?

Thanks, Kathy

Hello Kathy,

Unfortunately, the only option is .BMP because native support for .PNG is not available in all Windows versions. Bitmap scaling is automatically handled via the Windows StretchBlt API.
