15063 - Advanced Display Settings removal (looking for alternatives)

I just installed 15063 and to my dismay, the ability to customize text sizes of UI elements (former in the Display Control Panel) has been removed.

I don't want to just scale everything larger -- the point of having a large monitor is to have more room for processing art and photography, not to squint at desktop icons and menus in size 4 font.

The functions of scaling UI elements are apparently still there in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics registry key, but trial and error trying to figure out the details and fix my text sizes sounds about as much fun as a colonoscopy.

Is anyone aware of a reputable 3rd party program that helps customize these UI elements? I already use StartIsBack for larger taskbar icons.
