Jacqueline I am referring to the Hi-DPI scaling that was introduced in LC 6.5 that allows stacks to be automatically scaled to match the system display setting. I am not using 6.5 but using 6.7.11 instead. I am assuming that this works with the user's setting when they use your app. I set

Hmmm I seem to have gotten myself into the same fix as Ben. " Now that I have updated to LC 9.0 DP-10 and LC 8.1.8 stable, nothing can build (except 8.1.6 stable - which unfortunately doesn't like the widgets in my stack!)." I'm on High Sierra 10.13.6, Xcode 9.1 and LC is telling me I don't
