Any tweak to make 125% UI Scale?

PostSat Dec 30, 2023 5:10 am

Dear all.
In this new year 2024, anyone here has experience of tweaking 125% Resolve UI Scale?
100% is really makes my eyes in pain, 150% really make my workspace so bigger. I need 125% of UI Scale. How to tweak it? thanks.

125% UI or variable scale slider would be a nice feature for 2024

You could try this: Adjust your display settings (OS-level) to 125%. Right-click Resolve shortcut on your desktop, and choose Properties - Compatibility. Click "Change high DPI settings", and choose the option "High DPI scaling override" and set it to System. See if that helps.

Assuming you're on Windows.. I don't know how to do this on a Mac.

This is just a suboptimal solution, which also affects other programs

If anyone is wondering, just editing the config.user.xml does _not_ work.

I would like to revive this old thread and add a +1 for 125% scaling of the UI display in Resolve. On my 4k monitor, 100% is too small and 150% is too big. So, yes, Goldilocks setting would be 125%. I guess this is a big deal? It would be great to take advantage of the 4k real estate on the screen. The choices now are kinda microscopic vs telescopic.
Thanks!

+1 for a 125% UI scale!

Should be simple enough. It'd be the perfect balance between 100% (waaaaay too small on a 28" 4k monitor) and 150% (just large enough to be annoying and in the way).

Thanks, devs! <3

There is an option to set user scaling Try 104%, 108% or 110%. These are smallish changes but the results can be surprising. 108% set this end. After rebooting, Windows display say 175% but in reality is is around 108%
