At least you could slice it to Excel or use the (deprecated but zoomable) In Spreadsheet Browser. Just wait till you need to write a TI :o
I have a Dell XPS15 with a 3200x1800 screen and decided very quickly to crank the resolution down to 1600 x 900 for most purposes.
Also note that Perspectives is not getting IBM's attention much as they want us all to go CAFE. Not that I've tried the latter at 3200x1800.

I also solved the issue for myself decreasing resolution to 1900x1200.
But now I have the same issue with potential client.
CAFE still does not cover flexibility of Perspectives.

Yes. I have suffered from this many times. It is a real pain on a high res screen. The only solution is to scale down to full HD 1920x1080, otherwise the perspectives icons render as tiny specks and the rows in the cube viewer grid overlap and the server explorer client is basically unusable.
Please place all requests for help in a public thread. I will not answer PMs requesting assistance.

It is possible to 'fix' this in Architect by going to tm1a.exe properties, compatibility settings, and selecting Override High DPI behaviour Scaling performed by System. Still looking into perspectives.

Kirk,
Have you had any luck troubleshooting Perspectives?
My clients are experiencing the same resolution issues.
