Title: Fitting window
Post by: emongold on June 29, 2021, 06:58:29 PM

When I first open the application on my Dell laptop the window appears larger than my screen so I cannot see all of the buttons. Then when I fit the window to my screen I cannot see all of the options as shown in the screenshot. I believe this is causing me to not select any outputs and not have any results.

Hi Emongold.

That is an issue related to your screen size and/or resolution. Can you try increasing the resolution on your computer? Instructions can be found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-desktop-icon-size-or-screen-resolution-c6626736-5bb0-e094-7f03-49c828ff5da3 (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-desktop-icon-size-or-screen-resolution-c6626736-5bb0-e094-7f03-49c828ff5da3)

If that does not work, let me know what screen size and resolution you have and I will try to troubleshoot.

Thanks,
Steve.

Another issue is that this could be related to screen scaling. Under Settings -> System -> Display -> Scale and Layout, adjust the scaling and see if that helps.

Thanks Steve, I can see everything on the screen when I reduce the scale. It would be nice if in future releases you could scroll through pages if they don't fit!
