Any advice on dealing with Font Scaling on 2K monitor?

in Daz Studio Discussion

Part of my new rig was a 2560 x 1440 monitor, I used to work in  1920 x 1200 but those monitors are across a border that is not open as yet. Now I have a 1920 x 1080 as my side monitor, and running Windows 10.

The problem is I want the font scaling bigger. If I use the system dispay setting in "Scale and Layout" and detached tabs on the 2nd screen become impossible to move without randomly jumping out of visibility. Aslo  I get a blurry main monitor as it is no longer on the native resolution.

If I remove the UI scaling the picture looks great but the font size is a struggle for my 52 year old eyes.

Is there a better option than the "Scale and Layout" to expand Font Scaling in Daz Studio? Some setting or variable I can tweak?

    Seems like "That's too hard" is the only official answer

    It requires an update to the Qt application framework that Daz is built on. We know that such an update is happening for DS5 (and that it will break existing plug-ins, which is a major part of the reason it hasn't happened yet) - that doesn't mean font scaling will necessarily be top of the added feature list for the applciation, but at least we know the groundwork will be in place.

    Thank you for the answer. I'm hoping to work with DS5, and keep a beta of 4.5 around for when I need to use a plugin that does not carry to DS5

    Please do be mindful that more and more people are probably switching to 2K or 4K these days. Our cards can run em and they get ever cheaper.
