How do I scale UI for 4K?

[Guipa]

I was wondering if there's a way to increase the size of the UI. I have a 4k monitor but the font is too small, which makes kinda hard to read all the information.

Still no UI Fix for 4k, last Post more than 2 Month ago.....

That's strange, I've run SE several times on 4k TV screens with no issue. I can help you troubleshoot the problem if you'd like.

That's not a fault with the game, it's due to overscan on your TV/Screen. Ideally you want 1:1 pixel mapping though manufacturers use slightly different names to enable it.

e.g. If it's an LG the option is called 'Just Scan' and appears under Aspect Ratio. Note: it does not appear unless you go via the full picture settings menu.

I'm sure there will be options to scale and position the UI at a later date.

Oh lol, this explains a lot! I have 3D TV made by LG, and really confused: when switch to 3D mode, SE image get stretched somehow so that part of UI is not visible. This is confusing because image seems to be rendered at 1:1 pixel scale, and panel is 1920x1080.

Hey! Can we get a status update on this feature. Really tough on 4K displays. Thanks!

SpaceEngine looks absolutely stunning in 4K. It would be great indeed to have the UI scale accordingly. In the meantime, keep up the awesome work on this title!

I really hope this comes soon. Tried SpaceEngine again for the first time in years, and with all the display options for minor details, I was CERTAIN that I was just overlooking the UI scale factor!

It's beautiful in 4k!

We're working on it right now.

This program is completely useless in a 4K monitor, UI is impossible to use. 2 months since last post about it? Will wait a few days if else will ask for a refund. This kind of thing is infuriating, how come the game was never tested in a 4K monitor?

It has been tested on 4k monitors, it just wasn't originally designed for them. Depending on your visual acuity, the size of your display, and the distance you sit from it, it can still be usable and readable, even if not great. You can also run the program at a lower resolution (like 1920x1080) as a temporary solution until the scalable GUI work is completed.
