> Microsoft Remote Desktop has a feature called "optimize for retina displays," 
> which, when enabled, enhances the display quality of RDP sessions on 
> high-resolution screens.

> However, while testing docker-guacd, I observed that using 
> {code:java}
> window.devicePixelRatio {code}
>  multiplied by the actual dimensions of page elements and submitting DPI 
> values calculated by multiplying {{pixelRatio}} with multiples of 96 resulted 
> in a clear desktop appearance. However, the desktop scaling ratio was not 
> achieved, leading to extremely small fonts and icons. I suspect that this DPI 
> parameter might be limited to client-side behavior and not actually applied 
> within the corresponding remote desktop environment.
> 1.  when window.devicePixelRatio = 1,width=1792 , height=1092, DPI=96,
> The font and icon sizes are appropriate, but the clarity is average.
> .
> 2. when window.devicePixelRatio = 2,width=3584 , height=2184, DPI=192,The 
> font and icon sizes are extremely small, but the clarity is very high. It 
> would be perfect if the remote desktop could be scaled by 200% like in 
> Microsoft Remote Desktop. I am unsure whether the issue lies with my testing 
> method or if we have not implemented this mechanism yet. The 
> {{devicePixelRatio}} on my MacBook is set to 2 by default.
