I had finished installing CREO on my computer, and this is how it looks like. It seems like the font size is too large, but I don't know how to fix this.

It has to due to high resolution laptop screens and monitors. Try MartinHanak suggestion as well as the following setting. We had to do the following at Raytheon.

 

Solution/Workaround:

1.From Creo set the config.pro option, windows_browser_type to “chromium_browser”

2.Navigate to Creo load point;  this is our Creo 5 location. C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 5.0.5.0\Parametric\bin, right click on “Parametric.exe”, Properties

3.From the Properties Compatibility tab, select Change high DPI settings

4.Check the box Override High DPI scaling behavior and set to “System”

What version of Creo did you install?

On what hardware did you install it?

 

Here is a link to the supported hardware to verify that yours is on the list:

See this link for Creo 8.0

I don't see Lockheed Martin on the list.

      Yes, finally, I have a solution that works. I can confirm that the new high-end 4K screen notebooks have a problem with this. Every time we start CREO 10 or CREO 11, the whole environment is very tiny and not operational.

      So, thanks for the solution; it’s still working in the year 2024.
