Desktop Resolution Problem

My problem is that all the icons of autocad are too small on my screen i think it is because of my high resolution screen.

as you can see in the image the command bar is really big but the icon in the bottom of the sccreen are almost unseeable.

It looks like your computer windows settings. Change the resolution and the Display Settings. One of these is likely connected.

 

Right-click Desktop, click “Personalize”

 

Click “Display” on the bottom left.

 

Adjust these size settings and see if it helps.

 

Thank you for taking part in our community!

Thanks for answering so quickly.

this answer didn't lead to a solution if i put this size to 500% 

everything zooms in only the icons stay small

Just out of interest, how big is the monitor your using?

Also, have you changed any font sizes within the OS? If you have, I would suggest resetting these back to 100% and halving the resolution you have set now to something like 1920x1800.

Maybe if you had a bigger monitor then the resolution issue wouldn't exist as it would be perfect for that size monitor, however with a small monitor, you will have to sacrifice the resolution to make the status bar bigger.
