I've found that I get blurry fonts in the SAS editor in Windows 10 (with cleartype on and font scaling set to 175%). (SAS version 9.4 (TS1M3)). I believe this is because Windows 10 uses a different DPI scaling method than earlier versions. This fix works for me:
Start SAS. Right-click on the icon on the taskbar. Right-click on the SAS icon that pops up. Choose Properties, then Compatibility. Tick 'Override high DPI scaling behaviour' and choose Scaling performed by: Application. Restart SAS.
I have no use for this as I am thankfully not using W10, but thank you for posting.
I am sure it will help someone.
Thank you for the tip. It fixed the issue on my computer.
This is very helpful. Thanks!
I created a SAS profile just to comment on this - THANK YOU!! Worked perfectly.
Thank you very much, I thought there was something wrong with my laptop for a second there.
Oh my gosh, thank you!
thank you SO MUCH!
This has been irking me for ages!!!
FWIW, you can get to the same menu by right clicking on the program icon or a desktop short cut.
Thanks, the trick worked for me too!
