Not sure if this is theme specific or general to Fantasy Grounds, so I thought I'd ask here.

Are there any plans to support 4K resolution? Currently in 4K the interface is all messed up; text is unreadably small, the chat box takes up a little corner of the screen instead of filling the left side, etc.

It's not a big deal - I just switch my resolution down to 1920x1080 for game night - but it would be nice to have.

I'm not sure about a specific 4K resolution theme - the issue would be that themes are enabled for the GM and all players, so everyone would need to be using a 4K monitor.

Regarding the chat window - you can unlock the window via the right-click menu and resize/move it.

I don't know what you mean that it is messed up in 4K resolution; as that is what myself and many others run in.
If the display is too small at 4K, then you can use /scaleui 150 or /scaleui 200 command to bump the zoom level of the tabletop.

Ah, I did not know about the scaleui command or being able to resize chat; that resolves most of my issues with running in 4k. Thanks!

I did almost run into another issue though - because you can't resize the chat window by grabbing the top, only the bottom, if you increase the UI scale such that the bottom of chat is off the bottom of the screen, it seems like you could get yourself in trouble; I'm not sure how you'd get focus back on the chat box to scale the ui back down if you clicked away in that situation.

EDIT: I realized you can grab the side of the chat box to drag it, not just the top, so that would get you out of that trouble. Would still be nice to be able to resize from the top for convenience, though.

Standard FG window functionality - hold the CTRL key and left-click and drag within the window to resize; no need to drag on the side or bottom of the window.
