Kirk,

On my 4K monitor (LG 31MU97, 4096 x 2160 pixels), build 16231 looks great! It really is a big improvement in usability.

One issue: Using the dark UI scheme, the filter bar for star ratings (lower right-hand corner of the screen) is hard to read (black characters on a dark grey background.) This item looks fine using the light-colored UI scheme, but I prefer the darker UI.

Thanks,
Tony

Please post a JPEG screenshot of the area of the screen you're describing.  Use the 'Attachments and other options' link when you're composing your reply to this message and there you'll be able to upload your JPEG format screenshot.

Thanks,

FWIW, this behavior appears unchanged on my system for build 16268 (bcdb10d).

I did not have time to fix this cosmetic issue.  It will eventually get fixed.

Kirk,

I understand this issue is cosmetic in the sense that only colors are involved, not any functionality ... but for me, it makes using a functional feature of the program (selecting images by rating) very difficult.

Thanks,
Tony

The next build will have this problem fixed.
