P: Support scalable user interface UI for high resolution monitors

I'm using a high resolution monitor(2560x1600). As a result, all the the toolbar fonts and menu fonts are small and hard to see. I do not want to lower the screen resolution as this would defeat the purpose of this monitor.. Will the new CS6 have the ability to increase font sizes to accommidate Hi-Res monitors?

Thanks

Um, I just purchased an $600 software package CS6 not CC. Didn't know this was a problem until today. Unreal....

As already explained, there is a new feature in Photoshop CC 2014 for UI scaling.

I just got a new computer and CS6 Master Collection. Do you guys have a fix for this scaling issue yet?

Yes. The new UI scaling feature is only in Photoshop CC 2014.

See the previous responses. 200% UI scaling was already added in Photoshop CC 2014.

To Chris, Jeffery, et al:

It has been officially stated that, and I quote, "The menu font size in the 2014.2.x release of Photoshop CC is determined by the operating system settings."

I dispute that statement as being blatantly false, and here are MORE screenshots to back my assertion. Yes, this is the most current version of CC2014. You will not that OTHER CC apps scale up just fine.

I am curious to see if there will be ANY official response whatsoever to this entry.

Jeffery, kind sir... In the above post you clearly state: "The menu font size in the 2014.2.x release of Photoshop CC is determined by the operating system settings."

I'm afraid I have to call BS on that statement, and here is my evidence: (Oh, right, no pix in comments. Durrr. Lame. I will post this as a fresh entry in this thread - but I assume it will just be met with deafening silence, just like all my other damning screenshots.) Please exercise your ADVOCACY skills, not your "PR Damage Control" skills.

Roland, we get it that you are mad. We also get that you are using CS6, and you will not see a fix (that's like asking Ford to fix the faulty wipers in your '82 Mustang). This discussion is about CC2014 and the problems that exist for that version. You and your 60+ messages last night totally was blowing up my phone, and I just want to state for the record that at this point you are simply being petulant and annoying. Please stop.
