Hey guys, so i have Photoshop CS6 13.0.1 and I'm running on a 2K Monitor. Anyways the UI is was to small for me to use. And I can't find any options for making the UI larger.

Question 1: Can I make the UI larger on this version of Photoshop? If so how?

If I cant Make the UI Larger then...

Question 2: What Version of Photoshop did they start to support 2k-4k Displays?

Hope someone can help me. This is very annoying.

The only way I know of is by using Windows scaling options - which I personally don't like at all.

100% (normal) on a 4k monitor

150% on a 4k monitor

So already you can see why I personally wouldn't like it. If you view the full image at it's full resolution, you will see that with 150% scaling set in the Windows settings, that the text on the UI becomes rather blurry in some areas, which I would also assume would have an impact on any artwork you may be trying to do.

I do know there is a way you can can adjust just any Adobe products to run on a bigger resolution through Regedit and adding in a manifest file for the Adobe program(s) but I do not know the full steps behind it all and don't want to lead you into an area that I haven't done myself. If that seems like the better fix over Windows scaling, then I would definitely Google about using CS6 with 4k/high resolution monitors and read up or watch some videos to see if that is what you're looking for and can fill in the holes of what I am missing.

I got if figured out, i guess Version 13.0.1 doesn't support 4k monitor. So i ended up getting 2017 version and it works perfect. I didnt have to mess with anything. Thanks though buddy
