Huge fonts since last update

<< < (2/5) > >>

Not man places. A very few places the size are larger for more visibility.  or because it is now using DPI scaling and makes sure the font is scaled.
In that dialog the target location is the most important information, so that is a bit larger.

freespace area will autoscale font according to scaling settings in Windows. So just make this font smaller in Explorer Panel settings

I have done it before asking here (see attached image area [4]).
Font are larger than before in areas marked [1,2,3].
BTW, the rightmost icon in area [3] after last update was pushed out of view. I had to enlarge MC window to see it again.

I have scaling set to 150% (screen size 15.6'', resolution 1920x1080 if that matters).

Yes some places are changed. Can't stay in the past. The ide is that you should not have to customize any size if you are running at high dpi, everything should scale automatically.
But If you run very low window size it might not work so well. Also MultiMonitor scaling is not yet supported, it will get the scale factor for the monitor it starts on.

The commandline field is a new Combobox that support darktheme, The font is the size it can be where it is places, so it is auto scaling by it self.
DeviceDropdown. is the same combobox as commandlne that support darktheme. Will use
The "Free space" will autoscale (change from before). So if you run a very small windows size with high scaling. You might need to lower the font. set it to 6,   6 at 150% scaled should be around 8pt.
The Path area is not changed at all.. The default font is changed. it scaled already before.

Thanx for your reply.

I can't set font size to anything less than 8. It is minimum font size available on my system. See attached file.

It would be nice to have configuration option to turn off autoscaling until all problems with it will be resolved. It's like automatic gearbox - sometimes you need to turn it off.

8 is just the recommended minimum in the list. You can enter any value in the edit box above the size

If you could turn it off people just turn them off and do not report the issues and they never get fixed. people in general are really really bad at reporting issues.
else this would have been reported during the beta releases.

Also there can't be a option for everything, There are already too many options. It turns inte option hell.

But the scaling things are going to be tweaked a bit more. However some things that works in 150% scaling looks bad in 225% scaling. so it is not easy to get right.
Specially when I do NOT have a 4k monitor.
