I'm running Spyder IDE 4.2.0 on a widescreen 3440 x 1440 display.

ETA: This is on Windows 10.

The console text size is fine.

But the font size of the user interface windows is distractingly large, so much so it almost impacts the usability of settings windows. You can see examples below.

I've tried setting the high DPI scale to 1 (it cannot go below 1) and setting it to "Normal". I've tried resetting all the settings to default. The problem still persists.

Is there another solution?

is this Windows, Linux, Mac? Maybe it depends on system settings, not Spyder settings? Did you ask author of Spyder? Maybe they have own forum. – furas Jan 20 '21 at 23:11
@furas Important point: this is on Windows 10. I edited the original question to add that information. – E. Vincenti Jan 20 '21 at 23:36
try Enable auto high DPI – NaN Jan 21 '21 at 00:36
@NaN No difference. – E. Vincenti Jan 25 '21 at 11:47
@furas Also, my native Windows 10 DPI settings are set at 100% (1:1, so no magnification) – E. Vincenti Jan 25 '21 at 11:47
