Technology Screen zoom is too close

I didn't want to put this into either Ideas or Bugs, so just feedback.


I'm on 27" display 1920x1080. Default UI scale is too big like it was intended for big TV screens. UI scale 0.70 makes it just right for the game in general. However, Tech screen's zoomed mode is still too close. It looks fine with UI scale 0.50, but then everything else in the game is too small.


So, either convenient Tech screen or the rest of the game - pick one. Is it possible to maybe edit some game file to fix that on my own?

Or, you could just use your mouse wheel to unzoom some... that's what I do, and it seems to work well (my screen is 28", so similar to yours).

There's no "unzoom some" for me, the screen can only be in two states:


1. Completely zoomed out:



2. Completely zoomed in:



These are with the default scale value "Adaptive".


What I really need the zoomed in scale to be is (0.60):



But then everything else in the game is too small. 0.50 is even better for the tech screen, but then the font is too small and weird-looking, even though you get a great view of the techs themselves.

I don't like the zoom either. There are only two levels - max zoom in and max zoom out. I wish there was a middle one...

+1 on this. Would be great if the zoom level just had more options. As the default zoom in with all the details is way too close and hard to see anything. I end up having to zoom in and out to move around the tech tree a lot which feels awkward.

+1 Zoom on tech screen has two states, one show only the centre of the hub, the other zooms out to a factor of 10 million.  Who thought this was a good idea?
