Yes, the maximum is hardcoded, as you found out. This should be changed for high resolution displays. Please file a bug report at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you know how to compile LyX for windows you could easily remove the limitation (you found alyready the right place in the source), recompile and see how it works. Georg
