Configure UI Scale

View > UI Scale lets you increase or decrease the size of the AetherSDR interface. Use this to match your display resolution or personal preference.

Before you start

  • AetherSDR must be running.

Steps

  1. Click View in the menu bar.
  2. Hover over UI Scale to open the submenu.
  3. Select one of the fixed scale radio buttons: 75%, 85%, 100%, 110%, 125%, 150%, 175%, or 200%. The interface rescales immediately.

Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcuts without opening the menu:

  • Zoom In: Ctrl+=
  • Zoom Out: Ctrl+-
  • Reset: Ctrl+0

What each control does

Control Description Default
75%200% Fixed scale radio buttons. Selecting one sets the UI to that percentage of its base size. 100%
Zoom In (Ctrl+=) Increases scale one step at a time through the available percentages.
Zoom Out (Ctrl+-) Decreases scale one step at a time through the available percentages.
Reset (Ctrl+0) Returns the UI scale to 100%.

Tips

  • Ctrl+0 is the fastest way to return to the default scale if the interface becomes too large or too small to navigate comfortably.
  • Zoom In and Zoom Out step through the same fixed values as the radio buttons, so the scale always lands on a defined percentage.
