Could the windows scaling be the culprit here? Have a look at the PR at the end of this post:

> Hi. slight_smile I’m doing: setWindowSize(854, 480); in setup(). But when I screenshot my app and measure the window in the screenshot, it’s 1068x600px. Coincidentally, that’s exactly how big the youtube player is in a maximized browser window on my PC. Return values I’m getting: getWindowWidth() -\> 854. getWindowContentScale() -\> 1 isHighDensityDisplayEnabled() -\> false My display resolution is 1920x1080 and I’m on Windows 10. Any idea what’s going on?
