title: Scale an entire WPF window
body: <p>I have a WPF application that I am going to be demoing to an audience on a large, high-resolution projector, and I am worried that the application will be too small to see from afar.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a simple way to make the ENTIRE application bigger (like the zoom slider in the WPF designer, that lets you zoom in?)  I tried adding a layout transform to the Window in XAML, like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;Window.LayoutTransform&gt;
      &lt;ScaleTransform ScaleX="1.5" ScaleY="1.5" CenterX=".5" CenterY=".5" /&gt;
  &lt;/Window.LayoutTransform&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>which makes the window look bigger in the designer, but seems to have no effect on the running application.</p>
  
  <p>I figure this should be dead simple with WPF's "resolution independence", high-tech text rendering, vector graphics, etc.</p>
  
  <p>(I know I can use a screen zooming tool, but that's lame since it makes everything fuzzy, and always makes me dizzy when the presenter pans around the screen.) </p>
