Text too big in android studio on monitor in windows 10 - android

Im running android studio on a surface 4 pro, which has a higher resolution than my desktop monitor.
When i dock the surface, the text in Android studio is massive, and i cant find a way to make it a more acceptable size.
I would appreciate pointers from anyone who has already faced this.
Thanks

You can try to follow this post, if does not work, then do ctrl+alt+s and from Keymap assign a combination of keys to enlarge and diminish the text in a class

menus in android studio looks small on my new screen

I have this weird problem with Android studio that's driving me crazy.
I have a new monitor, with a higher resolution (2560x1440), and on that monitor the toolbar menus looks small, they get reduced to 7 rows and I have no idea how to change this behaviour. So far it is the only software that does this, is there some settings where I can change the height of the menus?
I'm on Ubuntu 20.04 if it makes any difference.
(sorry for the picture I couldn't take a screenshot with the menu open)
You can change the font size of Android Studio UI. This might help.
File -> Settings -> Appearance and Behavior -> (Tick) Use Custom Font -> Set your desired font size at Right of the Use Custom Font option.
Checkout the Screenshot here
While I still don't know if the problem is solvable via any internal setting in Android Studio, I managed to resolve this issue by swapping my HDMI cable with a DisplayPort. What really puzzled me was the fact that only Android studio seemed to be affected.

Text Size in Android Studio and Actual Device

I am using the visual editor in Android Studio. In there, the text is really big, like how I want it to be. But when I build it on a physical device it is default size.
Thanks in advance!
simply create many layout that support pixels make all your layout handle your show way
read this to understand the idea
https://developer.android.com/training/multiscreen/screensizes
and do this in your code then check the devices

there's also something else you may have not noticed yet
in android studio Preview Layout you can choose your the preview device as your actual device or same as it.
this way the preview design will be same as your device. but for other devices you should have above answers in mind.

Android Emulator shows only on a small part of the screen

I have a problem with my android emulator. It only shows a fraction of the screen.
Screenshot:
I have Android Studio version 3.0.
I tried a lot of things. I could fix the error when I use the emulator with Software emulated graphics but it is really slow.
know someone the solution?
thank you.
Make sure you have configured hardware acceleration correctly.
Disable the Device Frame by edit action.
Start the emulator and Go to Extended Control
Go to Settings and change OpenGLES render to Desktop native OpenGL
Restart Emulator and Resize the Emulator Window.

Android Virtual Devices (AVD) resolution not correct after downloading Android 5.1.1 for SDK

The story is that I developed an Android program with Android 4.4.2. But some problems was found after installing the program to a device with Android 5.1.1. So I tried to download Android 5.1.1 for my SDK to debug the problem. Then the AVD I kept on using becomes like a mess no matter I changed to different configuration (see picture 1). My AVD configuration is as picture 2.
Hope someone could help... Thank you so much!

Got a temporary way to solve it and don't know if it is correct.
Set the skin to "no skin".
There is another problem happened now. The control bar of that window shows out of the screen. It makes the window cannot be moved. Anyway, I can continue my development job in this way...

Android developement : Emulator skin and resolution

I have just started development in Android... and I have searched a lot for the answer to the question below. It seems a very basic thing which I cannot figure out.
I am using eclipse Juno, APK17 on Windows server 2007 . When I try out the emulator I do not see the options to change the size or resolution as I have seen in many articles (example) Instead the only option available for me is "skin : Display a skin with hardware controls ". Under "Start", i can set the resolution but the settings are lost once I run the application. How can I get the emulator to show the skin and resolution as shown in the example? Is it an option available on Eclipse on Windows?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
