	How do I increase the font size in windows such as "Micro Explorer": "Library Manager" info panel (bottom part below list). I have a 32 inch screen and still that text is almost unreadably small. Ex. the letter 'o' is < 2mm.

	Thanks for the report. There is no direct scaling available in vMicro, and we are working on updating these windows currently so they scale better on high resolution monitors. Does applying the registry change as described on the "4K Monitors" tab on the below page help in the interim? https://www.visualmicro.com/page/Arduino-Visual-Studio-Downloads.aspx

	Tried the registry key to no effect; thanks for the reply though.

	The software does not directly use QT, however we have improved these issues in the latest version (22.02.18-5) which is available from the top of the below board: https://www.visualmicro.com/forums/YaBB.pl?board=VS_ARDUINO_EXT_RELEASES If you have set the dpiAwareness registry key, this can now be deleted.
