Learn how to set user interface preferences in Adobe Bridge.
With High DPI support enabled on Windows, the Bridge user interface scales to 200% on HiDPI monitors. However, Bridge also allows you to manually set the scaling preference.
Scaling preferences
In the Preferences dialog box that opens, select Interface.
- Appearance: In the Interface pane of the Preferences dialog box, you can set the overall appearance of the user interface. You can select from the following:
- Color Theme: Select a Color Theme under Appearance from the context panel that opens. You can now choose the Color Theme from Darkest, Dark, and Light.
- Image Backdrop: Use the Image Backdrop slider to adjust the contrast levels in the background of the Content and Preview panels according to your preference. This adjusted background color is independent of the selected interface color theme. Also, the menu bar follows a consistent color scheme with the selected interface color theme, on Windows 10 and macOS.
- Scaling: Configure the UI scaling preferences in Bridge to uniformly scale the interface based on your screen's resolution. Now, you have the flexibility to scale the interface along with the text. Drag the Scaling slider from Small to Large to change the size of tools, text, and other UI elements.
Select OK.
