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

Ron Acevedo

    These features were developed for the current version (CC). These features won't be available in prior versions of Photoshop.

    I also don't have anything to share on the Elements side. Sorry.

    Sorry, I can't give a specific date - but since it's been included as a sneak with the Surface Pro, I can say we're getting pretty close.

    Hopefully the developers have been forward looking and plan to offer more than 200% (like 250% or even 300%) larger interface for the even higher resolution screens that are available now (like 3200x1800 for example). 200% larger on a 3200x1800 screen will still be very small.

    How long before this new interface will be available in Photoshop and Photoshop Elements?

    Jeffrey, Does this mean that CS6 will get the 2x User Interface support too? On all Windows 8.1 PC's?

    Go to ~34:00 of this video: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/p... to see a demo of upcoming 2x User Interface support on Windows, as well improved pen & gesture support for Win 8.

    New development?

    Today, Microsoft invited Adobe on stage for the Surface 3 announcement, and they demonstrated a touch-optimized version of Photoshop for Windows. I haven't seen the screen of the demonstration yet, but the Surface 3 has a screen resolution of 2160 x 1440. Could this be a clue that Photoshop will finally work with high resolution screens? Or is this a completely separate version of Photoshop, and will not fix the full-featured desktop version?

    Any comments that were removed really were not on topic, or really did contain profanity or personal attacks.

    My comments were relevant and not profane but they were deleted. I assume this will be too.
