Awesome series. helped me a lot. I created a GUI and have a question: Could we set the screen resolution for our GUI?
I worked out the GUI on my laptop. But when I open it on a desktop with an obviously higher screen resolution, my GUI seems to have small font and components. How can this be resolved?
