Message font scaling is great, but...

[imacken]

Please to see that this type of issue is being dealt with the message font scaling now in 2.5.5. However, it only goes part way to solving the problem wen running DCS in 4K as the Label font size, the FPS indicator font size and the Training Instructor text size have not been addressed.

Until that happens, I still have to use 2 mods to make this stuff readable in 4K.

See attached. First with ED's new option at max size, and the second with the mods running.

As you can see, all that the new option does is increase the size of 'Press SPACE to continue'. The text above, and the FPS indicator in the top left are almost unreadable. In the modded image, everything is perfect.

Can we expect to see this kind of option been expanded to labels, FPS/sys info and instructor text?

Larger font for the fps would really be helpful.

I found that only first message is not scaled, the next are ok.

See mod I posted here https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3921958&postcount=6. Works perfectly in 4K and is OvGME ready. (Sorry, can't remember the original author's name!)

Well spotted! Obviously a bug. I'll post in the appropriate forum.

I scaled it to 1.25. Worked but the larger size font then moved the text down further inside a constrained box area and so F1-10 was visible but F11 was half obscured and F12 was completely invisible so it's worthless.

It's not useless, works fine for me in 4K 1.5!

I'm guessing you scaled it too high for your monitor res, as the text will have to be contained in a box, so scale it to fit.

Tried 1.25 and it's ok, on a monitor @1080p. Using VR? It might be a bug.
