Screen Resolution - small text

[sadievan]

Curious to what others have their text/app size and resolution set to. I haven't changed the resolution but I have upped the text/app size to 225%.

I'm not sure, but I think that also changes your screen resolution. If not how did you do that?

I tried 225% for a little while, It made Edge much more user friendly, but I hated how large it made the tiles on the full screen start menu. So I've reverted to the default (200% I think).

You change the scaling --- under Settings >> Display, you'll see "Change the size of text, app, and other items". This is necessary for screens with resolutions higher than 1080p [1920 x 1080] or if your eyes aren't so great! Without it everything would be really tiny on screen. Basically it upscales your text and apps without changing the resolution of the overall system --- so everything remains super crisp and sharp using the 2736 x 1824 resolution.

Exactly my problem at my age. Some of the text is sooo tiny. LOL
