PyQt GUI size on high resolution screens
<p>I posted a <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38546580/tkinter-gui-size-on-high-resolution-screens/38546859#38546859">question</a> a while ago asking about Tkinter backends and subsequently forgot about it but I've since realised that I'm using the pyqt backend. Is there a fix for that? </p>

<p>Original Question:</p>

<p>So it appears that matplotlib gui plots (a la plt.show()) don't adapt to monitor resolution and appear tiny on high resolution screens. Is there a matplotlib+Pyqt fix or do I have fiddle around somewhere in Windows settings?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>While I do not have much experience with PyQt, upon googling I found <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14726296/how-to-make-pyqt-window-state-to-maximised-in-pyqt">this</a> SO question about setting the window state of a PyQT window to maximised. The accepted answer says to use <code>self.showMaximized()</code> to do so.</p>
