GUI issue - size disparity Surface 8 Pro tablet

Hello! I installed LightBurn on my Surface 8 tablet, because I thought it would be more convenient to use with my laser than my other pc’s. But some of the GUI layout is so small that it makes it impossible to use it this way. And I haven’t found settings that will resize those items along with all the others.

I found other posts that direct uses to the Settings panel to change the TEXT size, but that doesn’t change the size of ALL the text. It changes the work area numbers and the icons across the top and left column. But then other text like the x and y axis and dimension at the top, and text in the right column are VERY SMALL.
I tried adjusting the text with the slider, but those items don’t change. I also tried adjusting my tablet settings, but that doesn’t change them either. The tablet settings don’t even change the size of LightBurn’s desktop icon. If I change the tablets settings, it will enlarge all my desktop icons but LightBurn’s.

My tablets Display resolution is at the recommended 2880 x 1920. I tried increasing the SCALE (in System > Display), but as I stated, it doesn’t scale the entire GUI (basically only changing the same parts as LightBurn’s Text slider).

Anyone else run into this and figure out how to make it larger?

Attached is a screenshot. I thought the best way to show it was with a screenshot showing the difference between LightBurn’s GUI and other apps (I used CorelDRAW’s GUI). The area in question is in RED. I also attached a screenshot of one of the Settings panels showing how small the information in those are.

Thanks.


There’s a recent video that may help you address this:

OK, I fixed it! When all else fails, reboot! I decided to try rebooting again, and that fixed it. Now everything looks like it does on my other pc’s.

Cordially…JEB
