The problem has been fixed in 3.4.0, since with the 3rd SU2 Beta, Asobo has fixed the bug in the sim which caused tiny fonts.

The problem discussed here is the TINY unreadable font in SU2 Beta. You don't have that, your screenshot shows fonts *slightly* smaller than what I see here but, I don't have a 4K monitor, so I don't know if your size is how it always look like in 4K, but it surely NOT the tiny unreadable fonts that has been fixed for sure.

Version 3.4.4 doesn't change anything, it simply restored the menu file as it was before the SU2 bug, so you should see the same result as you always had and if you are not, it means you don't have 3.4.4 installed, possibly due to your cloudflare node not updated yet, so just try again now, it might be fixed.

So the problem of half size font is not a bug but a feature? Why has this become an issue for all of us that use a 4K monitor all of sudden then?

"so you should see the same result as you always had and if you are not, it means you don't have 3.4.4 installed,"

Images from 1 VR Menu 2 Installer and the manuifest.json file from fsdreamteam-gsx-pro
MSFS2020

Please, just fix this

As I've said, the TINY UNREADABLE fonts problem HAS BEEN FIXED. You with 4K monitor are all reporting a whole completely different issue, which is NOT tiny unreadable fonts, but just fonts as smaller as they used to be even, again, I have no frame of reference since I have a 1440p monitor, so I don't know *exactly* how they looked like before.

I'll try to explain it again: the bug that has been fixed is the one that, when you open the menu the first time, the fonts where microscopic, NOT as in your screenshot, but way, way smaller. And as soon as you clicked on the menu border, they fixed themselves to their normal size. THIS and only THIS is the bug that HAS BEEN FIXED in 3.4.4.

You are seeing something different, and I suspect one or more updated files might have not reached your local cloudflare node, even if the manifest.json has (so quoting the manifest.json is not very useful, it only show you at least *tried* to update).

Can you check the size of these two files ?

\Addon Manager\fsdreamteam-gsx-pro\html_ui\InGamePanels\FSDT_GSX_Panel\FSDT_GSX_Panel.css  (should be 2860 bytes)
\Addon Manager\fsdreamteam-gsx-pro\html_ui\InGamePanels\FSDT_GSX_Panel\FSDT_GSX_Panel.html (should be 3994 bytes)

If the copy you have has a different size, you don't have the latest version we have online now so, just try again an update CHECK, I'm sure the update files must reach your cloudflare node, I also forced a cache retrigger, in case cloudflare didn't take it.

I'll check those files, but just to avoid misunderstandings.
My problem with the small fonts is only in VR. The image is the VR view and the fonts are really microscopic maybe not that obvious on the image.
This problem sytarted right after I guess (80% sure) the 3.4.3 release, with no updates of the flightsim for a long time.
In the non-VR view the fonts maybe are a bit smaller, but really no problem, hard to see a difference, if there is one.

That's confirms my suspicion which is a cloudflare replication delay: BOTH files are not the version we have online. As I've said, the correct size are these:

\Addon Manager\fsdreamteam-gsx-pro\html_ui\InGamePanels\FSDT_GSX_Panel\FSDT_GSX_Panel.css  (should be 2860 bytes)
\Addon Manager\fsdreamteam-gsx-pro\html_ui\InGamePanels\FSDT_GSX_Panel\FSDT_GSX_Panel.html (should be 3994 bytes)

So, just try again until you get the correct ones, sometimes it might take two tries, if you are the first in your area calling for a new file.

Just try updating again now and check the file sizes of the two files I listed, which were surely outdated in your case.

Nothing affects how cloudflare nodes are updated, it's completely outside anybody's control, we can only tell cloudflare which files are new (and there's an automated procedure for that), the rest is done automatically. What you do is not really relevant but, it's *possible* that, if you were the first one calling for that file in your area (same local node), it might require trying an update Check twice.

Its so small that i need to wear my glasses which i never had to do to read the menu. So to me its: Tiny and unreadable.
So it would be great if you change the font size back to the size before whatever you have done

Totally unreadable, also with the newest version, also in MSFS2020, also in VR.
