Not a support forum here - but does someone know, if there are ways to resize UI fonts for the Windows Krita application without touching the Windows setting for the whole monitor?

The only way still working for me is an arcane - in fact deprecated for a long time - Qt environment variable (QT_DEVICE_PIXEL_RATIO), that makes a difference for at least a portable Krita installation.

This is a big deal. If you use a display drawing tablet, the likelihood of it having the same resolution as your display monitor are becoming less and less, and if I can't scale krita on its own the UI becomes a mess.

We're really dependent on the Qt framework here. And they've been messing around with hidpi support for ages, and never, ever get it really right. The current state, in 5.15 is still "fractional scaling, well, deal with one pixel gaps between decorations in widgets (like lines).
