I've started working with GIMP on my laptop, with a UHD (3840 X 2160) monitor. The UI looks much different that on my desktop with a standard HD monitor. Not only is everything smaller (text, icons, handles, etc.) but the way checkboxes in the tool settings work is different, too.
I know how to change the icon sizes using Edit>Preferences>Interface>Icon Theme. Huge is big enough. But, this setting does not affect the icons in the tool settings. For example, in the Unified Transform tool, the 4 icons for the Transform mode (layer/selection/path/image) are still so small and close together that it takes extra time to maneuver the mouse over 1 versus another. The Foreground/Background color icon also stays small - it is almost impossible to select the "exchange" and default setting switches because they are so small. On the popup dialog for 3D Transform, the 3 buttons for switch to Camera/Move/Rotate are also extremely small, making it hard to select the right one.
The handles on many tools are also very small, and the cursor is so small that it is very difficult to see the icons that are associated with it.
The checkboxes in the tool settings are also very small.
I was able to change the text size by creating a custom theme and editing the 'gtkrc' file. This doesn't change the default size of any other UI elements, however.
Is there a way adjust the sizes of these UI elements without changing the resolution of the display?
