Hi Jeremy. First of all congratulations on the amazing job.
Lara Raad was just showing me VPV. I compiled it and did so flawlessly on my Ubuntu 22.04.
The problem is, I have a QHD display (3820x2800 something) and I have it set to "200%", which is a relatively recent feature in some of these distros which controls the scaling of the GUI aspects of applications (it appears on the "Displays" dialog and is a property of each monitor). Most apps. in Ubuntu react correctly to this feature. I don't know how it is read by an application. All I know is that VPV unfortunately doesn't and so the fonts,buttons, menus, everything is miniscule. I can barely use it.

Hello Ignacio, you can probably use the SCALE option. Create a ~/.vpvrc file with the following:

SCALE = 2
