    Lazarus still not good on high dpi monitors.
    I have 4K 15" laptop, can barely read the component panel and object inspector has text cut off. Is there a fix for this?

    Joseph Carney For Object Inspector:

    Tools/Options -> Environment/Object Inspector -> increase item height to make the Object Inspector readable

    For component panel you can use alternative window : View -> Components (Ctrl + Alt + P)

    For more docked experience try this instruction : https://github.com/FlKo/LazarusDockedDesktops

    i care more about the debugging which still seems abysmal. Objects are still only represented as pointer, so inspecting the details is a it cumbersome .
