    It strains my eyes, so i have to change resolution to 1366*768 to zoom in..

    So is there anyway i can do about it? Thanks.

    Is it eyesight problem or UI bug? I have never had any problems with them and the fonts are same size in windows.

    Have a look at the Accessibility options on your machine OS. There should be some kind of zoom feature available.

    No problem with the font size for me at all. It is very readable. But I also don't use some crazy high resolution either. I have a 17" laptop and run at 1280x800 I think it is.

    That might work, with 27'' monitor, i have to change resolution to 1366x768, so maybe its the only way to fix it for now.

    That's the way I see it (no pun intended). If I am using 1366 or higher I'd get a 24" separate monitor. That defeats the point of the laptop though and 1280 seems like overkill to me. I was using 1024x768 up til a few months ago. The latest stats I saw about 20% of computer users were still at 1024x768. Anyway you may just want to get a large monitor. Nice big display to make the problem go away.

    Reported this problem 3 years ago. Still not seen any motion except my votes have been returned unheard.
    The only solution that worked was to buy a large TV and run it at a moderate resolution.
    Still sucks when I have to do development away from home.

    Literally, I started using alternative programs just to get away from the pain in the eyes that Unity was causing.
