Is it possible to change font size in C1?

I can barely read the labels in C1 on my high res monitor. Is it possible to change the font size?

Best,

    Isn't this achieved by OS adjustment (Windows)?

    This is not the correct solution : most applications are using a readable font size in their UI. Changing the font size globally will too often generate trouble with these applications. The problem is only with C1.

    Capture One is scaling just fine as far as I can tell on my 27" UHD...

    Adjust scaling in the Display settings in Windows, this is recommended way by Microsoft, and CO honors this.

    The Viewer and all other places where pictures are display, will still be in 1:1 ratio to the native resolution of the monitor.

    How is this adjusted in Windows? I went to settings/display/make text larger (200%), closed C1, re-opened C1, no change. Even with my glasses it is really difficult to read text in C1.

    It didn't work. Everything is bigger outside of C1, but fonts in C1 are unchanged.

    This appears to be one of those hand writing on the wall moments. If capture one is unable to meet this simple request what does that mean for the future of the application. They were able to release a somewhat usable iPad application, but still can't seem to figure out a good online collaboration tool. Focus seems to not be on what the majority of users actually need. They are focusing on Bubbles Bangles and Beads but not core functionality.

    Oh, just stop.

    This thread relates to releases from 2015 and 2016, and Capture One is still going strong.

    An "issue" of some relevance to a tiny subset of users that you might find yourself in, is no indication whatsoever of the bigger picture: as others on this very thread have pointed out, UI scaling is massively OS dependent, and Windows gets in the way. 

    That ain't Capture One's fault...

    You have absolutely zero clue what "the majority" of users want or need.

    Keith, "This thread relates to releases from 2015 and 2016".  And the fact that this is still an issue today is my point. I appreciate you helping me underscore the importance of my point.  The majority of users who are interested in Capture One as new users are probably moving from other tools such as Adobe Lightroom and to a lesser degree Photoshop. The fact that you were able to do that in these applications shows the need.  If users with 4K displays that are smaller than 30 inches where to move to capture one the fact that they can't use their 4K screen at full resolution is probably an issue for them. Couple that with the fact that 4K displays are much cheaper now, and more and more people are going to buy these displays and have to either use them at a lower resolution or return them.  And lastly seeing that there are over 1000 results of people complaining about this I am not alone.

    I once stumbled across this article by chance: https://jmgalleriesusa.medium.com/make-your-capture-one-pro-menu-font-look-normal-again-on-hdpi-windows-10-devices-a055d71cfb10

    But because I don't have a problem with the fonts myself, I didn't try it out.
