I did not attack you or state you attacked Adobe Your experience was not different than others.įair enough, I guess it felt that way because you started the reply with the phrase "You need to realize", but I'm glad it was not your intention to attack.Īnyway, the problem is resolved, and that's the important thing here.Īdobe just released a new updated version of Photoshop CC (end of January 2018) - and the app's UI scaling just DOES NOT WORK.

I found a LOT of posts where the answer was to update the registry to favour an external manifest file as you described, but the symptoms described in those posts were not the same as my own. If other people were experiencing the same symptoms as myself, I was unable to find those articles/posts.

Windows scaling is not perfect either.Īll of the articles/posts that I found (perhaps I was searching the wrong thing) were not experiencing the same issue as myself - it might be the same problem at it's root, but the symptoms were different - most of them described a really small UI whereas mine appeared to be actually broken where some parts of the UI were being displayed in the wrong position and the buttons weren't working). Even that is not easy and there that is why there are more than one Windows scaling option. It is not like you OS scaling a display to a lower resolution.
What you are seeing is what everyone else sees and why there are so many complaints about Adobe's Photoshop 2x UI scaling Adobe is working on this it not an easy thing to pull off.
Additionally, if you set Photoshop scaling 2x Photoshop UI will be scaled to an even lower than half resolution. If you override Photoshop high dpi scaling behavior Photoshop can not use your displays high resolution for anything Photoshop displays will be scaled to a lower resolution. Adobe wants to be able to use you high resolution displays high resolution when scaling you images displays. Windows scaling is per display and scaling on displays is global UI and image are scaled to the same resolution. You need to realize Adobe is still working on UI scaling their current implementation has many problems one of which is scaling to 2x is a global setting all display will be scaled 2x.Īdobe UI scaling is different than Windows scaling. This is how the start screen looks on each monitor with Photoshop's UI Scaling setting set at each different setting:

Info: My Surface Pro has a resolution of 2736 x 1824 and the display scaling is set to 200%.
It appears as though the scaling is being applied to some of the UI, but not all of it. But when I'm not connceted to an external monitor, Photoshop is completely unusable. Photoshop works perfectly fine on an external monitor that is not high DPI. I've found plenty of posts on several forums of people complaining about issues with photoshop UI on their high DPI devices, but none of them seem the be experiencing the same issue as myself.
