Hello,

The software doen't scale on an high dpi screen (4k), as a result, everything looks very small.

Hi Joihn, I appreciate you bringing up this issue. I'll be looking into it soon, after the upcoming release. As far as I understand, QT supports automatic DPI scaling that I could use, which would make this an easier solve. The only issue I see is that the icons would look bad if scaled (they're all 32x32).

Hmm... Any thoughts? Anyways, I'll get on this soon. Cheers!

Hi apockill, thanks for the fast response.

Most window app use automatic DPI scaling, and it work pretty well, I think it's probably the best way to go.
Pyqt seems to have some documentation about it, but you probably already found it ;) http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/highdpi.html

If you don't have any 4k screen to test, tell me, I can be a beta tester ;)

About the icon, maybe they don't look too bad on a 4k screen (they will simply be 4 time bigger I think, but we have to test...)
Have a nice day !
