Good to know that it's not me going mad. Much appreciated.Everyone. This thing is broken for quite a time now.
Nice fix. Thanks for the info.Lol - don't believe everything people post here
Fixing Elite Dangerous Launcher on High DPI Displays yourself
Fixed it for me, by locating "EDLaunch.exe" > open Context Menu (with right mouse button) > "Properties" pops up > switch to "Compatibility" tab > press "Change high DPI settings" button in the new pop-up > tick (enable) "Override high DPI scaling behavior" and change "Scaling performed by:"...forums.frontier.co.uk
That's an interesting workaround i wasn't ware of but still we shouldn't need to use workarounds for something like this.Lol - don't believe everything people post here

This is one of those occasions where I had submitted a support ticket and got the answer within 24 hours. That's when I put two and two together and realized that I only experienced this in 4K.
Since then, I have found a number of other glitchy programs where this DPI fix worked for them as well. All of this went away when I switched back to 1920 x 1080. So I would hypothesize that this might be an issue width DirectX 11 or as I believe in my case, the NVidia drivers. This did not happen with my AMD card. So on this occasion, I'm not sure I can hang this one on FDEV. The mere fact that Microsoft had to add a check box to disable function this tells you that this is a design flaw in their display graphics. For those that may remember Win2K, when we all started migrating from predominantly 4:3 Aspect ratio displays to wide screen 16:9, there were similar glitchy issues.
