'Thumbnails view' buggy on highDPI screen

just watch the pic (I prefer NC-mode):

1) text is not fully visible (problem does not go away if I increase the distance between the thumbnails)

the following does not depend on screen resolution, but IMHO some improvement is necessary:
2) hard to see: which thumbnail is selected?
3) hard to see: which thumbnail has focus?

I have made many changes in the 731 for highDPI screens but unfortunately this problem is not fixed yet.
You could try workaround and define smaller font for the thumbnail view:

ThumbnailsViewFontSizeLimit=8

good to see it's being worked on - I found some more things, perhaps they help you solve the problem.
by the way ThumbnailsViewFontSizeLimit=8 --> good workaround

open the settings dialogue make some minor change to Spacing for example and click Apply. as long as the settings dialog is open it looks like this:

when you close the settings dialog now using X button everything is fine until you change the Tab.
when you close the settings dialog using the OK button everything gets weird at once.

What is your screen resolution, Windows version and font setting in Windows, 200%?

15"-Notebook (Lenovo)
Resolution: 2880x1620 (recommended)
Font setting: 200%

[edit]
again: everything's ok as long as the Settings-dialog is open.

In the release 734 I have started with thumbnail view drawed by Windows.
You could try it - add the following line in the freecommander.ini in the [Form] section:
ThumbsFCDraw=0

sorry, not everything is o.k.

after returning from Thumbnails view FCXE forgets the correct font-setting of the panel (the right panel shows correct font: Segoe UI, semibold, 10). restarting FCXE corrects the mistake.
watch the pic, it shows the left and the right panel of ONE and the same instance of FCXE.
