When scaling ratio of monitor is set high, font size of "Page Size/Position" on Document Options Toolbar is too small

Post by rakunavi »

Hello all,

When the Windows display settings are set to a higher scaling ratio, such as 200%, the font size of the "Page Size/Position"(*) on Document Options Toolbar seems to be too small.
(*) the dimensions of the document and the current pointer location

For example, imagine replacing a 27-inch Full HD monitor (1920x1080) with a 27-inch 4K monitor (3840x2160). If the monitors are physically the same size, changing the scaling ratio from 100% to 200% in the Windows display settings should give you a similar operating feel before and after the monitor replacement. In fact, the menu fonts and icons are displayed at about the same size, but only the font size of the "Page Size/Position" seem to be noticeably too small.

Below is (A) an image captured at 200% scaling, and (B) an image captured at 100% scaling, but enlarged by 200% using image editing software to align them to the same size. Also shown is a GIF animation of each of the captured images, switching between them every second. Notice that the size of the icons indicating the coordinate axes has not changed at all, while only the font size of "W, H, X, Y" infomation is clearly different.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Best regards,
rakunavi

Hello, rakunavi

Will do! Today is a holiday here, so the office is a bit barren, but I expect they will see my message later this week.

Hello all,

The much smaller font size of Page Size/Position pointed out in the above post can be easily seen by comparing it with the font size of Page Size that appears as Tooltips when the mouse cursor is moved to the lower left corner of the page view.

From the images of users posted in this forum, more and more people are using it on high-resolution monitors, but I wonder if everyone is satisfied with this very small font size. Since it is a place that is frequently seen, the difficulty in seeing it is very hard to bear.

Best regards,
rakunavi
