Summary0010029: 4k GUI
DescriptionThe GUI is still difficult to use with a 4k monitor on windows 11 at least and my old, bad eyes. Maybe I missed a setting somewhere, but I have not been able to use this even at the highest setting. Is something being worked on for this? I'll try on my linux and mac later as well.

Ardour asks at first start to scale. later you can change it in Preferences > Appearance > Font and GUI scaling for a 4k screen try 200%

except on macOS, Apple scales the GUI automatically.

Okay, thanks, I'll try that. Just getting going, trying to leave windows behind. I've been a linux dev for 30 years, but mainly command line, time to switch!
