Is there any way to scale OBS properly on a 4K laptop screen?
Even with OBS set to full screen, the text is less than 1/8" high.
I need the 4K screen on the laptop for photo/video editing.

You can try this. See line about adjusting font size.

High DPI eye-friendly Dark theme

There are some minor text clipping issues, which is why I didn't go above 17px. If this isn't enough for you, you can open Dark_accessibility.qss at line 38 and manually type in any font size, but expect more clipping issues the higher you go...

Playing with the OBS program Properties...

My current version of Win10 has a button in the Compatibility tab for Properties:
Change high DPI settings
which has a checkbox:
Override high DPI scaling...
which has a puldown:
Scaling performed by

By selecting System or System (Enhanced) the font is resized from the mouseprint.

Hope this helps other hi-res screen users.

What do you mean by this? Where would I find these properties? I don't seem to see what you're talking about, but it sounds promising.

This is a Windows tab. Right click the OBS icon, select Properties at the bottom, Compatibility is in the row of tabs at the top.
