Display Size vs Pixel Size Problems - blinkinhek - 01-10-2019
I have recently moved to a Surface Pro. with it's fairly high res screen BUT the icons are not really legible or usable I can adjust some in settings BUT the Tool options dialog do not change. Windows does provide a scaling factor in its settings, which helps some programs (many of which automatically scale their icons, menus, etc) but GIMP seems to ignore it.
Can anyone help?
TIA

Would the earlier versions be the same do you think?

Surface Pro? Does this have a high definition display - edit: quick search maybe 2736x1824
Nothing you can do to fix the icon size. From previous questions, best reduce the display setting to HD (1920x1080) if possible.

yes - it does have a high def display. I had not thought of changing the screen resolution - so will try that. Thanks
