Change Photoshop Interface Scaling
Source-checked About 10 minutes
Answer
Open Photoshop Preferences, choose Interface, adjust UI Scaling or related interface options available on your display, restart Photoshop if prompted, and check that panels remain usable.
Prepare the correct account, device, or project
Duplicate the document or layer and save a new Photoshop file before changing interface, performance, or image settings. Confirm the exact Photoshop version, selected layer, document mode, display scaling, and account or organization policy. Make one change at a time and compare against the saved state; avoid cracked plug-ins, preference cleaners, and irreversible flattening.
Open Interface preferences
Open Photoshop Preferences and select Interface.
Adjust the interface scale
Choose the available UI Scaling option that makes menus and panels readable on your display.
Restart and inspect Photoshop
Restart Photoshop if it asks you to, then confirm panels and text fit your workflow.
Verify the result
Restart Photoshop when required and inspect menus, panels, dialog buttons, canvas space, pointer alignment, and text on every display used.
Use the supported recovery boundary
If the expected result is unavailable or the interface differs, stop before deleting additional data, weakening security, or using a third-party workaround. Recheck the exact account, device, permissions, compatibility, and current product state, then compare the result with the linked Adobe Help Center guidance. Preserve the original files and exact error so official support can diagnose this specific task without guessing.

If it does not work
- If controls are clipped or blurry, restore the prior preference and compare operating-system display scaling and Adobe's supported options. Do not delete all preferences first.
