The big downside is that, at least for me with my Mid 2014 MacBook Pro with discrete graphics, it can only do "high color" and not "true color" when running at full resolution. IIRC, I learned this trick from VMware Fusion, which sets the text scaling this way if you let it "automatically adjust display preferences" in guest VMs. This feels like how I want Windows to behave on small hi-resolution displays. But at 199%, the fonts seem to "round up" and look crisp and proportional, and none of the large UI elements feel stretched for scaling reasons (though you'll see plenty of apps where things are super-tiny, maybe because they're not accounting for text scaling). If you set the text scaling to 200%, this triggers a "large type" mode where the mouse cursor and other things suddenly get much larger, which feels clumsy to me when viewed on a Retina laptop display. I like to run mine at 2880x1800 (native resolution) with Windows text scaling at exactly 199%.Īt these settings, everything looks crisp, and the aspect ratio is correct it feels like "Retina" mode for Windows. The 1920x1200 resolution is usable but it's such a pain to stare at blown-up programs with blurry text (Valve's Steam, Skype, and Foobar2000 programs for example). The 2880x1800 is waaaay too tiny for me to use and I'll probably destroy my eyesight if I use it. Right now I'm finding these available resolutions barely useable. Seriously, is there a resolution that works well in Windows 7 with the Retina Display? With the 2880x1800 resolution, everything on the screen is tiny and miniscule to the point where it's unusable for me. With the 1920x1200 resolution, many windows, applications, and such are at a terrible resolution things are blurry in general and everything is huge as if I were in high contrast mode and all of the icons were made bigger. What I mean by "well" is that the aspect ratio seems to be fine. It seems that only the 1920x1200 or 2880x1800 resolutions work "well" with the Retina Display. I have to ask, has anyone found a suitable resolution for Windows 7 on a Retina MacBook Pro 15-inch?
