I noticed that if I set the Windows 11 resolution scale to 125%, there is a blank space after calling OpenWindowedScreen

If I set it back to 100%, apparently the problem is fixed.to solve, I decided to multiply the resolution *0.80 ( I don't know if this makes any mathematical sense or if it's just a coincidence of my monitor... )

is anyone else having the same problem?

...and you didn't forget to enable the dpi aware setting? In other words: Does the same happen happen when you flip the dpi aware option?

The OpenWindowedScreen() dimensions are in real pixels, so if you create a DPI aware executable, you need to adjust it with DesktopScaledX/Y(). When DPI flag is on, all the window/gadget x,y,width/height are in virtual pixels (always like 100% DPI).
