There is no other process.  I think the different DPI among the screens (laptop, home monitor, work monitor) may have contributed to the problem.
I did a search and found one article saying that applications that are not DPI-aware could have some problem of auto-scaling, see: DPI and device-independent pixels

It is similar to what I saw - when I switch to a high-DPI (150 DPI) 4K monitor, the font size of the menu/tool bar are fine, but the font size in 'file-tree view' and 'editor (text area)' windows sometimes become too small.

I'll do some more tests.

The reason for this behavior is that the list views in UltraEdit do not use the font setting for lists defined in Windows desktop theme, but defined by the user in the UltraEdit theme on tab Application style for setting Dockable font window in View - Themes - Manage Themes. So users like you switching DPI because of extremely different screen resolutions must define two UltraEdit themes and switch with a click on appropriate theme in View - Themes also the UltraEdit theme when the Windows theme is switched because of connecting to different screen device.

Once user set the font size in View -> Set Font , the setting should be saved and should not be changed regardless screen size. I don't know why the font size setting keep on changing every time I connect to a different screen. This is not about the visual display - this is about the font size setting. UE automatically change my font size every time I connect to a different monitor. I have to go to the View -> Set Font to reset the font size.

If I go to View -> Set Font and set the font size to "10", I expect that the size remain "10" no matter what monitor I use.

I took the plunge at home and upgraded my personal copy of UE to v23 this weekend. On my 43in class 4K TV/Monitor the display is good. The ribbon icons are perhaps a bit large but I will see if I get used to them and the ribbon itself before I go back to the toolbar. If I did more coding at home I would be back on the toolbar if for no other reason than compatibility with my work environment. Well, maybe not, because I just found out that the work computers should be upgraded to UE v23 in the next 2-4 weeks. It all depends on how busy our IT department is. They are rolling out a newer MS Office to all of the computers so our upgrade is a lower priority.
