SIlverlight 3 DPI High Resolution Window Size Problem

Question

My Silverlight 3 app looks great on and off the browser with the DPI setting in Windows XP set to Normal size (96 DPI). After changing the DPI settings in Large Size (120 DPI), the application looks the same in the browser, but scales outside the browser.

The problem is that when launched outside the browser, the size of the hosting window remains the same regardless of the DPI settings. Thus, only part of the application GUI is displayed with 120 DPI.

Is there a way to adjust the size of the OOB hosting window or maybe turn off the scaling of the application with a high DPI?
