Scale UI

A scalable UI is necessary because right now, everything in After Effects is too small to see properly. My eyes, shoulders & neck all hurt when I try to work in After Effects, which is rather unexpected from such an expensive software.

The only workaround currently is to adjust the monitor's resolution, but it's very tedious & unreasonable to do so every time & then change the resolution again when working on other software.

Ever since Illustrator introduced a scalable UI, I've found it so much more enjoyable to work with. I believe AE can & should definitely have one, too!

Yes please everything in After effects is so tiny even with windows scaling to 150%, this issue doesn't exist in other softwares like DaVinci Resolve and Blender

Yes please. I found a console workaround but since it's unofficial it only half works. It doesn't matter how advanced a software is if I can't see what I'm doing!

Yes please! I have blurry vision sometimes due to a health condition and every other Adobe Program has this feature, shouldn't be too hard to implement! Really hope this gets more votes.
