Photoshop CC program text. [Tiny UI on 17 inch laptop screen]

Hi,

When I installed Photoshop CC on my 17" screen laptop, the text on the top and the symbols in the tools bar are so small that it is difficult to read them. Is there any way to make them larger?

Thanks,

Joe Casalino

    You could change the screen resolution of your monitor as a last resort? Go to the system preferences on Mac or Control Panels on PC and change this in the Display settings.

    hooe this helps,

    Yes, that does make it bigger. Besides the auto, 100%, 200% ,It would be nice if they used a sliding scale for that setting or just more choices. This way you could custom adjust the size to accommodate your preference and screen size.

    Adobe has a photoshop beta in the customer testing phase if you'd like to try it that has continuously variable scaling.

    The one main requirement is you need Windows 10 with the Creators update.

    Try adjusting the UI scaling in the Photoshop preferences.
