ribbon menu Font size issue on new monitor

[bryan_hutchinson]

Hi All,

Been using my 27" Benq monitor for years but I have started to have to scroll in more and more as my eyes are not as good, so I have got myself a 43" 4K TV, and it's great as I don't have to scroll in much at all, at that size the resolution is also great, but I am having an issue with the font size in the ribbon it's way too big, but only in the drag down parts? and isn't readable, can someone please point me to where it can be changed?

Hi @bryan_hutchinson, please, check this link: DPI Scaling AutoCAD, you may find the thread useful.

Thanks but like everyone said in reply's it makes AutoCAD and other apps blurry so wouldn't be any good for me

What acad version you have? You should have at least 2018 with updates. Prior that is' not suitable for 4K display.

@bryan_hutchinson ,

• How to change text size on the ribbon and toolbars in AutoCAD (Link)
• Menu and palette text scales or displays incorrectly in AutoCAD or dialogs not showing (Link)

In addition, try adjusting the Windows settings.

• In the Windows Start menu search field, type "Ease of Access" (Verify its 3840 x 2160 for 4K).
