Hello, How do you adjust the overall size of arcGIS desktop interface

[lesnagy]

I just downloaded arcGIS desktop, however, it's all scrunched up...how do I make everything a little bigger?

Toolbar's not showing completely

Do you mean everything just seems small?  Are you using a high-dpi monitor?  What operating system?

Hello Johua,

I just did some research and it may be a problem with my one day old microsoft "suface"...that I got specifically for arcGIS.

I have read that there are potential problems with high resolution microsoft tablets arcGIS desktop.  In my case I can't even see what the icons are...
