P: Support scalable user interface UI for high resolution monitors

We'd love to have the same experience, but Illustrator doesn't have the same requirements for the OS APIs that Photoshop does, nor the same feature requirements as Photoshop does (for example: painting must work correctly and track accurately over a long period of time).
You can't make a real comparison because the apps are too different.

Again, we are working on this, and we are continuing to work with Microsoft on this issue. Complaining about the lack of visible progress won't make the progress any faster. When we have something that we can share publicly, we will let you know.

Hi Chris,

Ok, I know, for you Illustrator is not Photoshop, but for us an adobe graphic app is an adobe graphic app, and in a professional field, it's difficult to make a difference between a vectorial/raster workflow, as you are a CC user you need/want be able to use any of the adobe apps, with the same "state of the art" experience.

Again, that does not matter at all. Illustrator is not Photoshop.

Hi

Just for your information, and without any goal of pouring "oil on the fire", let's select a 200% display in windows and Illustrator opens with an double sized UI, just "as is"

This is a metacomment. Over the years of this thread, its original content has been completed. That is, CS6 users have pointed out that the CS6 interface is ill-adapted to modern hardware, and that analogous problems appears to have been solved by other software vendors. Adobe has said that those other vendors must have access to techniques not accessible to Adobe, and that Photoshop will not be fixed until Windows is upgraded in some way known to Adobe and (one assumes) Microsoft. Some former CS6 users have said that they have discontinued use of CS6, and that they are now using other software.

All of that was said long ago, and now it is dribbling into endless repetition. As far as I can tell, the only non-redundant on-topic contributions here will be further discussion of alternative software. For example, are there features of CS6 that those using other software still occasionally return to CS6 for?

yes three years on and We... your paying customers... We're the problem for being just so gosh golly darn stoopid.

The way you talk to us Chris - STILL - you must simply be amazed we're even able to turn on our computers with how stoopid you think we are.

There have been a MULTITUDE of suggestions from the complicated to the "easy" for you "god like coders" to get your heads out of your @sses and out of our wallets and provide at least short term fixes.

So while you're "removing this post" because you just simply can't handle getting the same lip back that you dish out, just YOU think about how much we love providing you with a paycheque that allows you to lampoon your own customers, write crap software and blame everyone else's and delete posts from anyone calling out your bullsh!t. Big man.

You're making an awful lot of bad assumptions and mischaracterizations of our statements. And then you make even worse assumptions...

We are working on this, we have been working on this for a while, and we HAVE to work with Microsoft if we hope to make it work on Microsoft's OS. Yes, doing this right is a lot more complicated than you think.

On another thought. I don't understand why you can't fix Photoshop quickly just by making the "small, med, large" options for the interface you have already..LARGER. Makr the small option a little bigger than it is set at now. Make the medium a little bigger than it is coded now, etc. It would help a little until you get where you need to be. My guess is that larger than what you have breaks the interface, and that is all you can do. I do not understand why Adobe has done this. I have 301 programs installed on my computer according to my Windows Control Panel, and I have no problems seeing and working in the interface in any other programs than Adobe's.

I would really love to hear Microsoft's side of this. I apologize in advance for being so compassionate about this that I sound like a real @4640431, but I have been an Adobe customer since 1998 since Photoshop was released. Now I am not. All because your interface is too tiny to work in. So I need to have my say in this.

By your response, you do not have a fix date for a bigger interface. You do not have a fix date from Microsoft for changes in their OS to make a bigger interface. Do you even have a promise from Microsoft that it will include these "changes"? Adobe is just gonna ignore this problem until when? Windows 9? Windows 12? Windows 22? In a short amount of time, we have gotten screens that are 10 inches with 1920 resolutions that artists are working on with Photoshop installed. The icons and type are tiny. We have gigantic monitors with resolutions that artists are working on in Illustrator, and the nodes are microscopic. This topic is talked about in more places than this thread and Adobes forum. If you google anything with "Adobe" and "interface to small" or "icons too small", there are an awful lot of results.

So instead of working with what you have, you are waiting for a wishlist from Microsoft. This does not sound like a good plan to me. I am not waiting on a wishlist. I really hope that Adobe comes to their senses on this. Rework the interface with what you have. If you had started long ago when the problem was beginning to appear, it would be done and you would not have to rely on Microsoft to change their OS to rescue Adobe from this problem.

But that's just MHO. I have to get to work now. I've said my peace. I am comfortable where I am, but I would like to use the program I paid for someday. I am sure any interface change you will make will not affect my C6, but that is why I moved on.

Thank you for listening.

Hope the same fix, if we ever see one, applies to Lightroom. The fonts in that program are too small for anyone over 16 to see. I sometimes wonder if anyone at Adobe actually looks at their products before releasing them.
