Hi there

Is there a way to scale the UI? The UI is tiny and I would need a magnifying glass to be able to read it. I am on Arch Linux and use [Hyprland](https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland) compositor. Thanks for your time!

Hello, there is not an inbuilt scaling option in the PLECS preferences. You may be able to change this through your Hyprland settings or you may want to consider launching PLECS in different windowing environment.

hyprland.conf

```auto
xwayland {
    force_zero_scaling = true
}

```

.Xresources

```Xresources
Xft.dpi: 144

```

Startup\_Apps.conf

```auto

exec-once = xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

```

I added these lines in the config files to fix the scaling issue.
