So I bought CA4 and wanted to try out the software. Opened it, but the Fonts are so small, it is hard for me to read anything and hurts my eyes, and  I dont want to sit  10cm in front of my laptop. Is there an option to make bigger font size or UI , because normally the software does it when you change the font in windows, but in CA4 it doesnt happen. Right now the software is unusuable for me because everything is so tiny. Resolution is on 1920x1080.
If someone can help, I would be very grateful.

Click  Edit>Preference.
Then tick Enlarge Font and UI box.

Well if I do that, I get an error message when starting the programm, saying change the font size to 100% (in windows settings)?

Mhm ok, the thing is I use 1920x 1080 so thats why the error message came, would just be great to make the letters bigger, or they would get bigger if you change it in the windows settings, according to the settings there. Why is the enlarge option restricted to 4k?

Please try the following:

1. Right-click the Cartoon Animator 4 desktop icon and select Properties.
2. Select the Compatibility tab.
3. Once there, click "Change high DPI settings" and another dialog box will open:
4. On the second dialog box, go to "High DPI Scaling Override".
5. Now check the "Override high DPI Scaling Behavior" box, and from the drop-down select "System (Enhanced)".
6. Click OK, and OK again.
7. Now when you adjust the Windows Scale & Layout setting you should see the changes reflected in Cartoon Animator.
