    CamBam - Linux- Scaling the display resolution

    Hello
    I have a request from a Linux user. Since I have no idea about Linux or Mono, I'll pass the question on here.
    Maybe someone knows the solution.
    Thanks ralf

    Hello, my name is Michael. I am looking for a solution for the resolution problem of Cambam under Linux. It worked quite well under mono (operation is ....ohwell), I was able to work with it in any case. Now I have a new laptop with 4k resolution and I can't get Cambam to scale, i.e. everything is extremely tiny and hard to read and operate. Under plasma 6 there is a setting, but then it is readable, but extremely blurred. Maybe someone knows a solution, thanks & lg

    I use the Windows version of CamBam under Wine 10 because I ran into several problems with the Linux version. Using Wine, you can run the "winecfg" utility, and then under the Display tab increase the Screen Resolution slider. Click OK before restarting CamBam with the new Wine config. This works fairly well for me to scale up the CamBam UI.

    Note, if you decide to try running CamBam under Wine, I recommend installing the latest stable version of Wine from winehq.org, and do not install Mono in your Wine prefix. Instead, install winetricks and then follow the instructions on this page to install "dotnet48" before you run the CamBam installer:
