Try by setting this environment variable:

export QT_FONT_DPI=128

I don’t know atm how to fix this cross platform. Hopefully in the future some better solution will be found.

I set export QT_FONT_DPI=128 in ~/.bashrc but the problem remains.

Can you double check it is set? When I set it from cmd and then run RCB all fonts are bigger. You can also set higher number than 128

Ah, yeah, it works! I set it to 199 and now:

Sorry it is not hassle free. But it is quite complex problem to tackle from within the app with a lot of legacy code.

There are quite a lot of apps that have problems dealing with HiDPI actually...; I am really happy I can use RcloneBrowser now! Thanks for helping out!!

Hi, I need small help:) in the next release I am will include more options to adjust interface size (fonts, buttons and remotes' icons). Unfortunately I don't have access to HiDPI monitor at the moment. Would you mind to try pre-release version and let me know if font sizes I chose (especially Large and Extra Large) are sufficient for monitor like yours? If you could try without any QT_FONT_DPI exported - you can unset it by running unset QT_FONT_DPI

My objective would be to make sure that font size L is perfect for your resolution and XL would be good for even higher.

Here you are link for latest development AppImage version for Linux:

Interface elements size can be changed in the new preferences window:

Hi @kapitainsky,

I use a 27" UHD monitor, but I use your rclone browser on Windows, if you want I can test "beta"/prerelease versions on my PC.

Edit: I found the #93 issue, and I am testing the beta version, I wrote there the comments.
