Hello I am requesting the option to change the UI size/scale. For example to make the tool icons on the left larger as I have a pixel-dense display. Thank you!

We do already scale the UI based on the current monitor's display scale. We also support moving of the application between monitors with different display scales.

But it would be nice, especially on Windows, if the users had some additional control se we didn't have to scale every application when we find the Affinity UI too tiny.

Do you find the icons in Affinity apps are smaller than other apps in Windows? I've just had a look around, and our icons seem larger than most.

I did find that initially, yes. And initially I needed to bump my Windows Display Scale to 125%. Since then I seem to have become more accomodated to the Affinity UI and I think I'm back to 100% on my two machines.

I haven't looked at Affinity recently on my wife's Surface PC, so I don't know if I would now consider it acceptable at 100% there.

So, to some extent, it may relate to becoming used to the location of tools and other functions. But I would still appreciate having more control over it.
