Ask WPF to ignore DPI settings

I have a wpf application designed for 1900x1200 resolution, but some of our users used window display settings to change the size by only 125% -150%, is there a way for the application to ignore these settings and still display normally?

I saw something like SetProcessDPIAware here , but havent been lucky with it.

Here is a screenshot of the application with display scaling up to 150% Application with scaling

As you can see, the application is too small and there is no way to configure it correctly.

Knowing the DPI in this case will not help. It will only change the CompositionTarget.TransformToDevice matrix, but the dimensions of the controls will not change.

I use the viewport to scale all the content. All sizes in my application are for Surface Pro 3 images:

<Window> <Viewbox Stretch="Uniform"> <Grid Width="1440" Height="2160"> <!-- ... --> </Grid> </Viewbox> </Window>

You can calculate the viewport size based on the DPI of the screen. See this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/166778/
