The Viewer window too small to show all settings...?

[egonvdv]

- Either when running directly from sd card, or when installed on pc
- I tried "troubleshoot compatibility"
- have Windows 8.1 & viewer 2.101
- impossible to scroll down in the viewer window itself
- screenshot attached

Regards

Screen resolution An older version did that but that one is Ok on my W7 after trouble with older vers

I have zoom on 125% and its still Ok Try reducing zoom level

It does that on my Sony Duo and I haven't managed to alter it

I would say screen resolution on your PC.

Changing resolution does not help & I fail to find this zoom function (I only know of the zoom function in explorer..?)
I' m guessing the problem is on the PC side, but then again have no similar problems with other programs...

What is the current resolution on your PC screen?

 

[egonvdv]

1920 x 1080

also tried:
1600 x 900
1280 x 720
1024 x 768

Perhaps you mean the viewer is TOO BIG for screen.

Try this R/click on desktop, display options comes up

Go to line that says make things on desktop larger or smaller

Make it a setting smaller than it is at present as below

Options are 100% 125% 150%

Reboot

Open Viewer


There is another option that after doing that you can make ONLY THE TEXT larger .

Is on bottom right of that screen

I had lappy on 150% and it was like you say Set it back to 125% and its fits in fine.

I then enlarged text so I can read it and all is good

1 tried the 1st suggestion already, but nothing....

Re the 2nd one: Which screen are we talking about when you say "bottom right"?

 

[Hillbilly]

I can alter mine by going into the NVIDIA control centre and changing things in there.

 

[egonvdv]

me too, but has no impact at all

whatever i do, the window is always too small & shows as per attached...

Something doesn't look right. Those desktop icons look really large for your resolution being set to 1920x1080.

Try the steps in this email. http://www.askvg.com/fix-bold-blurry-or-hard-to-read-font-problem-in-windows-8-1/

Well this is indeed the solution (I thought I was the same as ctrl+scroll, but that's only for the desktop Icons)

Cheers!
