How can I change display resolution of Android Studio IDE? Background: I was running Android Studio 1.1 on 1920 x 1080 Win 8.1 with 14 inch screen. Although the font was not very clear the size was acceptable. Android Studio has just updated to version 1.2 and the whole IDE resolution has changed. I have tried changing the compatibility setting with no improvement. I can change the editor font and console text to make it readable but the toolbar buttons are too small for comfort.
Update: OK, I've learned to live with it, but I'm surprised no-one else has the problem.

As a Mac user, you can pinch to zoom the editor in Android Studio because is based on IntelliJ.
But I can't do that anymore in the latest Android Studio version (4.1)
I've already tried:
checked Change font size with Command + Mouse Wheel in Editor > General
checked actionSystem.mouseGesturesEnabled in Android Studio Registry
No luck at all.
Does anyone have any solution?
I have found a way to Zoom in Android Studio 4.1.1 in macOS 11.1.

After this configurations I was able to zoom pressing cmd+two fingers on trackpad.

I have updated my android studio to version 3.1.3. After the update the text and other items inside design editor looks blurry and pixelated when the preview is scaled to a zoom other than 100%. In the previous versions the text was much smoother. Is this a issue of my computer display settings or any other error? Can someone tell me if there is any method to fix this issue?

Recently I upgraded the Android Studio from 1.5.x to 2.0 stable version.
Before the upgrade I was changing the screen orientation with the Ctrl + F12 or Ctrl + F11 keyboard shortcut but now it doesn't work in the 2.0 version. I also tried Numpad 7 and Numpad 9 (with the numpad on or off) but without success.
Yes, I'm aware that the new Android AVD interface contains a sidebar with various functional shortcuts which includes Rotate left (Ctrl + Left) and Rotate right (Ctrl + Right) icons but it rotate only the the device not the mode (Landscape or Portrait) as it showed in the image below:
How can I change emulator screen orientation to landscape or portrait in the new Android Studio 2.0?
P.S. Please do not mark my question as duplicate, I tried all the solutions from How do I change screen orientation in the Android emulator? and How to rotate the Android emulator display? as those questions were valid for earlier versions of Android Studio.
P.P.S. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 operating system on a Samsung R530 notebook.
It seems to be a bug. Please check out https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=206262 and report the observed behavior.
Edit: Fixed in SDK Tools 25.1.6
This is not a real solution, but if anything don't work, it's good workaround. Just add screenOrientation property to activity in the Manifest file.
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
/>
After upgrading my operating system from Ubuntu 14.04 to Ubuntu 16.04 the bug disappeared and the Rotate left (Ctrl + Left) and Rotate right (Ctrl Right) works fine.
I am using Eclipse and if my AVD is set at WVGA800 The highest resolution I see is 320X533 with the title bar gone. If my AVD is set at WVGA854 The highest resolution I see is 320X568 with the title bar gone.
The Emulator is set for Android 2.2 API 8 and I am using XPSP3
Why cant I get 400X800 resolution?
When you set the android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="8" It starts the emulator in a lower screen resolution. by changing the minSdkVersion to 8 I was able to get the full screen resolution on my emulator.
