SkyDemon Plan for PC is not optimized for HiDPI (4K) screens. This results in incorrect font sizes, incorrect margins and paddings, half visible buttons, tiny icons, unreadable text, etc. The software is very difficult to use because of this.
More and more screens are getting a native 4K resolution. Are there any plans to optimize SkyDemon Plan for these screens?

Jasper.

Not at this stage. SkyDemon Plan is written on a framework which makes supporting these displays tricky, as opposed to SkyDemon iOS/Android which are written on frameworks which work perfectly at any resolution and DPI.

If you use Windows 10 it will perform scaling on SkyDemon Plan to make it look ok, though you'll find it is a little blurry because of the scaling.

This worked for me:
Find the SkyDemon programme in your PC Programme Files.
Right click on the application.
Select “Properties” from the popup menu.
Click on “Compatibility” tab.
Select “Override high DPI scaling behavior.
Select “System” from the options provided in “Scaling performed by” section.
Click on “Apply” button and then on “OK.”
