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

Bridge does not support high res monitors. The workaround for acr is to right-click on the raw image, open in Photoshop. In ui pH, use experimental, and scale to 150 or 175 % or something.

I just got a new laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 // 7000 series), with Windows 10, and made sure to install the latest version of PS CC 2015. However, all the menus in PS (as well as Bridge/ACR) are microscopic. The "Edit/Preferences/Experimental features /scale UI 200%" workaround for CC 2014 does not seem to be available. Am I missing something? Can someone please advise?

Anyone else still having this issue with Windows 10 and PS CC 2015? I don't know what to do except go back to my 3.5-year-old laptop and increase the RAM so I can continue to run Adobe products normally. Or get an older monitor to attach to my new laptop? Help!

PS CC 2015 is *not* working for me, and I don't see the 200% UI Scaling preference option. It doesn't seem to be in the same location as in CC 2014? Can someone please advise?

How is this not working for me? I just got a new laptop, with Windows 10, and made sure to update to the latest version of PS CC 2105, and am dealing with the same microscopic menus that everyone is complaining about. Please advise!

Maybe I'm missing something, but based on my 4 days of experience with Windows 10 on my new laptop, nothing has changed from the previous complaints.

I just got a new laptop with Windows 10. Photoshop and Bridge/ACR are nightmares. Unusable.

I don't see the "Edit/Preferences/Experimental features /scale UI 200%" option in Photoshop CC 2015. Any ideas?

I am literally using a magnifying glass to see the menus in ACR. Completely unacceptable.

As noted at the top of the topic: this was added in Photoshop CC 2014 with the 200% UI Scaling preference (which is also in CC 2015).

We are continuing to work with Microsoft on the Windows issues necessary to allow more flexible UI scaling.
