I know that the UI will be updated in a future patch, this isn't a complaint-- I'd just like to know if anybody can tell me what resolution to use? Or a mod/tweak I can do to increase text size.

Have tried fullscreen + windowed modes, fullscreen is worse but either way I can't read anything in the left box.

Thank you for any help!

All of the panels in-game are scaled according to the resolution selected at the config screen when the game launches.
In order to have the best visibility with these panels (and everything else in a panel), set the resolution to either 1920x1080 or 1680x1050.
Likely your monitor may not support resolution this large, but this has been hard-coded into the game, and, as you noted, will likely be resolved in the future UI update.

Thanks for the reply. My screens only go up to 1600x900 and 1280x1024. It's a shame that the size is hardcoded :( but I guess I don't really need to see that info, probably.

Mine is set at 1600x900 and I do not have that problem. This might be an issue with your own video drivers.

As you can see in this screenshot

The test is entirely legible which means it is either your own drivers, system, or a setting you have in the game.

I have mine set at 1600x900 at 32bit.

If you don't know if your video drivers are up-to-date or not, you can post a DxDiag.txt here for us to read.

To gather a DxDiag.txt on Windows OSs:
  • Windows Key + R = Opens the Run… display box

    Type in dxdiag, and hit Enter

    At the lower-right of the display box that appears, click Save All Information, and this will open a prompt to save the DxDiag.txt

A new Catalyst was released 5 days ago, so I'll update and take another look.

Azumazi, your screenshot doesn't look all that different to me -- the text is slightly more readable, but you still have labels and buttons overrunning their display areas.

Someone showed me this screenshot the other day and their GUI looks wonderful!
