Application text too small in PS PS6 now I use a 4K screen

[smallegret]

Hi guys;

I've just bought a new Samsung 32" 4K screen and when opening PS PS6 the text size is miniscule .....

I've checked out a few videos and passed by EDIT/PREFERENCE to the three settings for text size small/medium/large ..... no go! .... basically it was already set to large .....

Is there a "get a round" or am I obliged to use binoculars for image processing ?.....

thanks in advance ......

Yes there is. If you are using Windows you can do following:

Go to Photoshop.exe, right click on it and go to Properties then to Compatibility.

Go to High DPI settings. Check override DPI setting and set it to System.

Restart Photoshop.

Good post.

I might have kept using CS6 longer if I had known that.

One of the beautiful things about Windows is how adjustable it is for individual needs.
