150% UI Scaling Option for Photoshop

I'd been trying to get some feedback from the guys at Adobe regarding this, but seems like no one has seen or heard this pleas. I'm currently using a Surface Pro 3 to work on Photoshop, and while I really appreciate the fact that Adobe introduced the 200% scaling option, it's really too big to do anything productively. It's definitely usable, but is it the best scaling? I would really hope 150% scaling option to be added as well. So we could toggle between it base on our preference.

What do you guys think?

    The way this is supposed to work now, is that Photoshop UI scaling automatically follows the Windows setting, in 25% increments.

    The crucial point is that the image window itself maintains independent scaling, so that 100% still means one image pixel represented by exactly one screen pixel. This is what's new, and this is what has been difficult to implement before. This is what took so long.

    Note that this requires Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, and it does not work on Windows 7 or 8.

    My vote also. HD is the way displays are headed for the long haul. Right now I'm resorting to using hotkeys all the time as buttons are just too tedious.

    Vote from here too for 150 %! Come on Adobe, this scaling thing is driving me nuts (and apparently quite many others as well...)!

    Has anyone in Dev actually tried any of these settings on a 4k monitor? Seriously, I ask because I am curious. The limited amount of preference options tells me no.

    The "Auto" doesn't really seem to conform to anything that I can figure.

    Please add at a bare minimum a "150%" option.

    One more vote here. Looking for 150%.

    LittleGreenDog‌ Thanks for your suggestion. I'm using 1600x900 now at 100%. Much better than the other options but I'd love to be able to use my full resolution.

    I agree wholeheartedly--bootcamping Windows 7 on my 15" retina display Macbook Pro with my screen resolution set down to 1920x1200 and text sixe to 150%--but Photoshop doesn't comply. Too big or too small.

    We need this. On a 14" laptop with a high-res display (1920x1080), 200% scale is absolutely gigantic and cuts off parts of the UI, while 100% scale is tiny and difficult to use-the phrase threading a needle comes to mind.
