4k screens, Windows 10-11

[Karel Tau]

Hi!

Any news on MLO Desktop's handling of 4K screens, pls? While I can change the size of most of the fonts, which is great, the top menu bar font, its pull down menu fonts, the fonts of Properties on the right or the fonts of the Filters on the left are just way too small for any comfort and I cannot seem to find a way to increase them. Sadly this is a common issue with older programs running on modern 4k displays and as great as many of these programs are, this makes them less comfortable to use. Sometimes overriding high dpi settings helps, but not in the case of MLO Desktop.

Any solution nevertheless? Or perhaps any outlook for an updated x64 version of MLO, pls? I have noticed users asking about this here as far as 2016 :-/

Many thanks in advance for any kind help!

:)

Hi, 

We are aware of the high DPI scaling problem and are planning to address it in the near future, though we don’t have an exact timeline yet. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The UI elements are displayed correctly with 100% scaling. If you don't want to change the scaling, try the following workaround:

- Right click on the MLO launch icon (either on the desktop or in the start menu) and select Properties at the bottom
- In the Properties window go to the Compatibility tab and select “Change high DPI settings” near the bottom
- Enable "Override high DPI scaling behavior" and select "System (Enhanced)" from the drop-down menu.

UI elements in MLO should now appear normal size. Hope this helps.
