[dba-Tech] Font Sizes

[accesspro at gmail.com]

Thanks to all respondents.
I found no way to accommodate all the different programs I use. 
So, I will just live w the least impactful ones not being large enough.

Hi Bob

If possible, you should always stick to the recommended resolution.
I use the same resolution at 60Hz, though at a scaling of only 125%, but the
monitor is 32". Text size at default.
That fits me well.

I did try a scaling of 150%, and that makes reading the property sheets
easier, but the applications eat too much screen estate.

These are my current settings.
Seems I have adjusted all of them at one time or another.

Scale =  150% (Recommended)
Display resolution  3840 X 2160 (Recommended)
30 Hz
Text Size 166%



Thanks for all responses.

What resolution and scaling are you using?

At High Resolutions, I find that I have to go to one higher than the
recommended scaling to avoid eye strain in several applications (including
Access property boxes).

Win 11. I notice this particularly in the property boxes in Access. They are
just too small to read. Not a lot on line regarding this. The one idea was
that even though it is win 10 or 11, win32 elements are still used in some
areas. This seems to make sense. But no one has a solution.
