STM32CubeMX on UHD (4K) display - clock configuration diagram too small to see

Using STM32CubeMX version 4.18.0 on Windows 10 Pro (build 1607) with an UHD (4K) display results in tiny toolbar icons and a very tiny Clock Configuration diagram.  Please see attached screen capture image.  Not that this application window is not maximized.

Is there any way to scale these images within the STM32CubeMX application so that I can see them with human eyes?

Additionally, the screen looks the same even when I drag the STM32CubeMX application to a different, lower-resolution monitor.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dale

This is my workaround on a Windows 10 laptop.

  1. Right click STM32CubeMX launcher on the desktop and select Properties
  2. Open 'Compatibility' tab
  3. Check ''Override high DPI scaling behavior'
  4. Select 'System' from the combobox and click OK.

Now CubeMX should be lot more readable on a high resolution display.

This solution works perfectly on my system. In fact, it helps other

Windows apps that don't deal with high DPI displays as well.

Thank you very much!

Thank you,
