[Fixed] Text cut off vertically in copy dialog

Post by JLoftus »

Hi Don,

I am seeing several places where text in the copy dialog is getting cut off vertically, regardless of whether the dialog is positioned on the smaller of my two monitors (2560x1080) or the larger (5120x1440):

What's your font / font size?

I just tried changing the Main Contents from 16 down to 12 and the behavior is the same

11.25 is the highest size that can be recommended. But even that cuts off vertically currently. Thanks for noting. :tup: Will be fixed in the next version.

Thanks, but at my monitor's resolution, 11.25 (which is represented by a selection of 12 from the font size list) is too small for my aging eyes. I'm using a 49" ultrawide monitor at 5120x1440 and 16 point looks great, have not seen any problems until I noted this copy dialog.

Thanks as always Don! Happy New Year!

If you need higher sizes you should use the Windows display settings. They affect all programs, of course,

Happy New Year!

Build 21.40.0104 fixed this issue, thanks Don!

NB I don't like scaling Windows other than 100% because as you said, it affects everything, causes too many things to not look or work right. I work with XY exclusively in Details views, where I have many folders with lots of items within, using 16 for the Main Contents makes this less straining on my eyes while keeping most other screen elements (XY and others)

Thanks again for the fix
