I'm using a Windows 11. Whenever I upscale to recommended,

the resolution of the image decreases significantly.

It works if I return the scaling of the screen back to the default 100%, but that basically makes my computer unusable and harder to navigate. 125% is preferable, but I haven't found a way to make the image resulting from processing clearer.

   Related to #1038. The software renderer appears to be particularly affected by fractional scales. You can use use size(w, h, P2D) to use the gpu renderer which seems to handle fractional upscaling a bit better.

   Hello,

   I have an example here to compare PApplets with different renderers:

   Hello,

   I have explored this here:
   https://discourse.processing.org/t/dpi-renderer-scaling-override-for-java2d/47439

   It requires adding this at the start of the sketch for JAVA2D to disable the scaling:

   static
     {
     // JAVA2D: 
     // Forces 1:1 pixel rendering by disabling OS-level DPI scaling
     System.setProperty("sun.java2d.uiScale", "1.0");
     }
