How to disable High DPI scaling in Animate

New Here ,
Aug 11, 2018 Aug 11, 2018

I have a Surface Pro 3 with what I still think is a generous screen resolution for a device of this size. But I have really big fingers, so I used 150% scaling to touch objects around the OS. The problem is that some times when I need as much real estate as I could get on the display, it will just scale up. If I wanted a device that had a resolution of 1440x960, I would've gotten one, and Animate is one of the big offenders, as it has a really large UI. Is there any way to disable this scaling in this one application? I still want everything else to scale.

What it looks like currently:

What I want it to look like:

Any idea on how to do this in 2020?  I don't have that setting in my properties.. Only a bunch of options to override things but nothing to disable.. very frustrating..
