Photoshop and WQHD monitors

[Carl]

I really hope i can get some help here as Adobe are very short on answers.
I want to buy a 25560 x 1440 monitor and run the latest version of Photoshop. Is anyone out there having any issues? Apparently the menue's and fonts are tiny, you can upscale in windoes 10 but does it effect the quality of the imaging?

Anyone using a monitor higher than HD?

Please help

Regards Carl

The latest version of PS CC has an option to double the scale of UI elements. This is independent to the Windows scaling (which is also available in Win8.1 too)

I have a 15" lappy with a screen even higher res than WQHD and PS was quite hard to use until they added that option, now it's perfect. Lightroom has always been fine as it doesn't use standard UI elements.

Ive got PS CC on a 4k monitor (3840x2160) with win 8.1. Yes, default UI text is very tiny, but scaleing in setup fixes that. The image res doesnt look like it changes.
Actually, the screen text is larger, but drop down menus are still tiny, havent worked out that yet.

The feature is currently experimental. I have a Surface Pro 3 where I run an older version of Photoshop and the UI is a real pain as there are no scaling features.

Not anymore.
It was experimental in older CC versions but in the last couple it has moved into the "Interface" section of the Prefs.

Agree about needing scaling on the SP3 though - with correct scaling it's a joy to use

Ahhh thanks for the correction. I really need to update :-/
