    Default UI font size Xara Designer Pro X

    Is there a way to increase the UI font size in Xara Designer Pro X?
    I have an HD 1080 display and the texts on the Infobar are hard to read, this is worst with those of the Galleries. Apparently Xara does not uses the Windows 7 resolution adjustments and neither I have found the controls in it as other programs do.
    Now that my 4K displays are coming, the software will be completely unusable.

    Thank you very much Egg Bramhill.
    It seems to me that the company is focused in the Web business now. This is a shame, I had been using Xara for more time that I can remember and even when my program for work is Photoline, Xara's line gallery is the best and it is indeed good for text. What I mean is it is not a bad product but it simply can not be used with a professional display.
    The UI should be compatible with HD a long time ago, now it may be too late.

    since the days of those threads I invested in a 24 inch cintiq pro, [black friday], mostly for use with corel painter and toon boom harmony, but at 4K 3840 x 2160 I don't have a noticable issue with xdpx15.1 UI so far - of course being a cintiq, i'm close to it when drawing, and also I drop it to 2K 2560 1440 when using it as a desk monitor and no again problems so far - I think the quality of the monitor and it's calibration are bound to be a factor

    PS - being short sighted may be a factor also
