UI scale -- how to determine optimal

Is there a math equation, a tool, or a manual on what the "optimal" UI scale is for every resolution?

I'm looking forward to my next major revision and included I would like to streamline the UI scale accordingly.

In order to do that I need to know what is optimal for specific resolutions.



Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Before 4.0.1, you had to use the command "/run SetCVar('uiScale', 768 / yourYresolution)". Now, however, turning off the ui scale option in video options sets your ui scale to what that would be automatically.

Thanks.

Looks like at 2560x1600 my UI scale is at the bare minimal.

Which completely changes how my UI looks, almost to the point it's TINY LOL.

I go one notch up from bare minimal and my UI is convenient.

However, this will prove usable when I'm trying to do a configuration for a resolution I don't play in.
