can't you tell win to use bigger fonts?
You can, but it only affects certain UI elements. It comes down to how the program was designed. It can mean an entire rewriting of a programs code to get things to scale properly. I wasnt sure if there was a workaround for processing though.
In the preferences.txt file, there are some properties to change the font, IIRC. Might be worth a try.
I checked but only saw options for the editor and console text size, like in the options in the program. Thanks though!
Were you ever able to resolve this issue? I'm having a similar experience on a surface pro with the resolution of ~3000x2000.
Hi I have the same problem (on my surface book). I can only change the text sizes of the editor and the console. But it's still a problem to view the options, libraries, etc :(
draw gui on framebuffer and paste it on main Pgraphics.
Example of this: https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/14778/android-desktop-virtual-resolution-same-resolution-in-all-devices/p1
I found solution. Go into Processing folder and go to subfolder lib (on linux: .../processing-3.3/lib; probably same on OS X and Windows) and open file theme.txt in text editor. There you can change fonts, colors etc. PS: Read comments in the file, that way you will find what you want to change. PS2: Not the whole solution. I realized that changes in that file change everything except font size in menus :( Will post if I find out this part.
