Jagged edges when increasing icon size in start menu
Thursday, December 29, 2005 by Diafragma | Discussion: Stardock Support General
Is there anyway to fix the jagged edges once the icon size has been increased to 96 in the start menu. Help will be appreciated....

I had resized the icons to 96x96 before using them and had also change the register to take 96x96 icons but as you can see in the screenshot they are still showing jaggies

In case you never solved this problem, it is because the start menu portion you have jagged icons in actually uses a smaller size than the default icon size. If you set your registry to use 96px icons, then these icons in the start menu will actually be 72px so you would need to make sure that there are 72px icons in the icon files you use. If you set the windows registry to 128px icons, then these icons you are referring to would use 96px icons. Also make sure the registry specifies a 32 bit color depth so any translucency in the icons will render properly.
