Win7 text scaling issue

hi there,

I just downloaded the test version of Parallels and found a problem:
I cannot set the scaling of text to any other value than 199%. when i log off and log on again, the setting jumps back to 199%. any ideas? is this a restriction of the testversion?

cheers

 

Hello SebastianZ,

On your Mac side, go to System Preferences -> Display -> Resolution -> Select the option : Scaled

Go to VM Config (http://kb.parallels.com/117287) -> Hardware -> Video -> Resolution -> Choose the option : Scaled or uncheck the option ->

Enable Retina Resolution ( either one of the option will be available if your Mac is having a Retina Display)

Re-install Parallels Tools once as suggested at : http://kb.parallels.com/4841

Now try to change the scaling of the text and check if you are able to make the changes to your Windows 7 Virtual Machine.

 

thanks a lot. everything is working fine now.
