Changing Kratos scale factor

If you are experiencing issues with the size of the Kratos interface, you can modify the scale factor. This tutorial will show you how to do it.

On Windows

You can change the scale factor of Kratos by one of the two following means :

  • By modifying the shortcut of Kratos.
  • By modifying the environment variable KRATOS_SCALE_FACTOR.

Modifying the shortcut of Kratos

  • Right click on the shortcut of Kratos and select "Properties".
  • In the "Shortcut" tab, replace the "Target" field with the following command : C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c "SET KRATOS_SCALE_FACTOR=<scale_factor> && START /D ^"C:\Program Files\<kratos_install_folder>^" Kratos.exe".
    • Change <scale_factor> by the scale factor you want to use (for example 0.75).
    • Change <kratos_install_folder> by the folder where Kratos is installed (for example Kratos-v1.3.60).
