Effects menu is smaller/larger than other menus on Windows with larger UI scaling
When looking at the effects drop down on a high definition laptop, it is smaller then the rest of the dropdowns.

1)Windows 10 Pro 22H2、Illustrator 29.6.1
2)サブディスプレイにIllustratorのウィンドウを表示
3)サブディスプレイの「テキスト、アプリ、その他の項目のサイズを変更する」を「200%」に設定(SubDisplaySetting.jpg)
上記の状態の時、メニューバーの「効果」をクリックしたときに表示されるドロップダウンメニューだけが非常に小さく表示されます(EffectMenu.jpg)
その他のメニューは問題なく適切なサイズで表示されます(OtherMenu.jpg)
他のドロップダウンメニューと同じサイズで「効果」メニューも表示するよう改善してほしいです -

I have the same problem - making the program harder to use.
And frankly looks a little sloppy on behalf of the developers - especially since the customers are very visual people.
Seems like this has been on the radar for years and no attempt at a solution, either.

I've had the same issue for all the time I've been using Illustrator on Windows 10 and 11. I do change my resolution so my screenshot includes both. They both display the effect menu differently to the other menus.

My Monitor 1 setting is: size of text = 125%, display resolution=2560x1440
My Monitor 2 setting is: size of text = 225%, display resolution=3840x2160
move UI from Monitor 1 to Monitor 2, the size of drop-down list of EFFECT is too small. -

same issue as everyone else and only for the "effects" menu

The effects drowdown is way smaller then other menus. Super annoying.
Windows 11. Illustrator 27.2 (64-bit).

The Menus sizes are all over the place. For example, the Effects menu is HUGE, but their submenus are "regular" size. There are other places this happens as well - with no rhyme or reason.
I just can't believe this would get through QC.....

The menus show up so tiny they are difficult to read.
Some seem normal.
This occurs in both Illustrator and Photoshop. -

One of the menu drop down doesn't scale accordingly on the secondary display running windows 11.

@egor
Why is this intended? Better readability for most-used menus? Depends heavily on user and type of work so cannot see the logic in only applying to these?

Still here.
Illustrator 26.0.1 64-bit Windows 10I'm running an external screen at a slightly higher resolution than my desktop and there is a different windows display UI scaling factor applied to both. I feel this might be the cause.

This is actually intended, although I agree it looks slightly off.
Same leading scheme is now used in Select > Same menu.

I have this same issue, all the other dropdown menus scale fine, but for some reason the Effects one in particular does not scale on 4k.

I have this same problem. On my Cintiq 16, the Effect and Character drop down menu are4-5 times larger than the rest. They are so big that they are unusable.

Fonts for the EFFECTS TAB MENU are tiny. Note the difference between that menu and the rest of the menues. WHAT HAPPENED and HOW TO FIX?
this is the current 2020 version of CS -
