2021 fixed for 4k monitors?

Post by fatfreek »

More than a year ago I uninstalled v. 2020 because the scale numbers were too teeny to make out on my 4k monitor.
(here's the thread that discussed the problem.
https://forum.corel.com/viewtopic.php?f ... ek#p370772

I am wondering whether this issue has been fixed for version 2021?

Unfortunately not. Still very tiny, even on my 32" monitor zoomed PSP up to 150%. See attached image. Icons etc on the other hand are fine.

What a pity they still haven't fixed this issue. I'm getting a 4k monitor soon. Hopefully they will fix this in the next version!

Well, here we are with my PSP notifications now telling me that 2022 is the latest version.

So, back to my original question. Has the issue of this thread been fixed?

I'm afraid not. I still have my 32" 4K monitor zoomed to 150%. Icons etc are still fine, but the rulers are exactly the same in 2022 as they were in the above image I posted from 2021. I don't even bother selecting Rulers under View...

The above issue with ruler size and no option to enlarge them still exists in PaintShop Pro 2022 (Unless I have missed an option somewhere)

actually you can enlarge via your monitor settings either in windows. Depends on windoiws version or monitor you have. I would suggest changing resolution first.
