Microsoft developed Win8 interface display plan

        March 22, according to tech blog TechCrunch, Apple's new iPad is equipped with a display that is amazing, and other tablet manufacturers are also deploying high-definition displays that rival the new iPad. Microsoft is also aware of this trend, and it has developed a Windows 8 interface display plan for screens with high pixel density such as Retina.

they had expected the device screen size and resolution ranges were analyzed and confirmed a "suitable area" for the three types of resolution (standard, HD and 2560 × 1440 is quad-XGA). In this area, the text and user interface elements are the right size, neither over-amplifying nor shrinking into hard-to-touch sizes.

at standard resolution, normal buttons and text display is not scaled. At HD resolution, they will be 140% of normal size, while at quad-XGA resolution they will be 180% of normal size. For the Windows 8 team, it is not convenient to zoom in 50% or 100%. The exact reason is not clear.

Another solution is to constantly adjust the size of the display content. If you use this solution, all buttons and fonts will be the same size regardless of screen size and resolution. However, the architecture has not yet been implemented because of the storage and display of text, the size and limitations of web content, and many other issues that are hampering the implementation of this more advanced solution. It is still under development.

Microsoft UX (User Experience) team member David Washington (DavidWashington) acknowledged that high pixel density screen makes the drop-down menu, and many other small close box in the familiar user interface elements "more and more annoying." . New operational and visual elements will replace them, such as Metro.

Finally, Windows8 support SVG as a development tool, developers will be able to more easily build applications for the right image scaling.
