Hi, I just downloaded the standard Ansys student pack on my own computer since I was used to launch it from my university computers but I needed to use it from home. I had no problem with the software when using it there, but now the HUD in Workbench is all zoomed out and really small, making it hard to work efficiently.

see below, pardon the french

I can't find a way to resize the HUD to an acceptable level, does it exist ?

Hi Antoine Pautrot,
Check the following forum that would help to resolve the issues.
/forum/forums/topic/changing-of-font-size/
Search videos on YouTube with the keywords" ANSYS with overlapped tab and small font size issue"

Let me know if this doesn't help you.
Best Regards,

Hi Sampat,

Thank you for your response. Indeed changing DPI settings in Compatibility in Properties successfully resized the font to an acceptable level, although making it a little bit blurry due to the artificial zooming. I guess this comes down to Ansys not being 4k compatible. 

Thanks for the quick response !

Best regards,

Antoine

Which ansys version of ansys you are using? 
This is mostly related to the system's compatibility. 
Have you checked the scale layout and display resolution in the Display setting?

I am using Ansys 2024 R1 student

The latest version you are using so it's nice. 
Have you tried to change the option of display resolution, scale and layout?  Try to increase the scale of 150% recommended and reduce the resolution and let me know if it makes changes or not. 
We don't have 4k screen compatibility at the moment. 

Best Regards,
Sampat
