even if i try to zoom in 200/300% all features of sierra are still tiny, this makes no sense

if i open a blank new chartbook, it seems ok. ive got hundreds of hours in building my chartbooks what could be the issue, this is a brand new pc, i ported the cb;'s over from my previous pc, is the a GPU issue? do i have to direct sierra to use new GPU?

This is caused by the operating system. Not Sierra Chart. It is the operating system interpreting the fonts sizes that you have set in Sierra Chart differently.

It is a Windows 10 behavior thing.
