Hello Everyone, I am currently working on developing a project and use perspective to display on a 4K screen (4096x2160), resolution on My Laptop where I am doing the design is at 1920x1080. Is seems that when I run a session on the 4K screen it does not match the size on the workspace. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/f/cf65c7349fd7bba51886a30ab1438dab3c9b5184.png) ![viber_image_2026-06-06_21-04-59-875](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/f/a/fa1d756bcb1ff8cc97db7a0722e6177270cee558.jpeg) In the picture in My workspace, I put a led display in the right most edge of the page display (workspace) and the second picture is the large screen. the object is not viewable unless you scroll all the way to the right. Please help. ---

I think you have unrealistic expectations for pixel perfect resolutions when web browsers are involved. Use flex containers and let your design **adapt** to the resolution in use. ---

I agree with what Phil said. I would add that the closest you can get to pixel perfect rendering is by using Perspective workstation in kiosk mode because it eliminates all the browser UI stuff that varies from client to client. This might be close enough for your purposes but you should favor a flex layout for most types of screens. P&ID screens are generally coordinate screens. You should definitely favor flex containers or maybe column containers for data dashboards. ---

As they said, flex containers. And if you want things to scale decently, don't use px. Use rem/em/cq (I generally use rem)
