And the preview of the pdf looks like that, so what should I do?

Sure. 2 steps:

1) Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Selections ---> Classic Style
2) Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Selections in focused controls | Use ---> tick it and choose your colors

Oh, thank you. It works well.

What should I do with PDF PREVIW coming out like that picture?

The preview panel (ctrlf+f11) is shown. Some of them were cut like that.

Oh yes, that's weird. Some users have reported this, but I could never reproduce it. It might be connected to the Windows screen resolution (aka custom sizing). Are you using more than 100%, maybe 125%?

Right, I'm using 4096 x 2160 uhd monitor.
HIDPI is 200%.

I changed it to 100% after listening to you, so it comes out well.
I guess my HIDPI was the problem.
But 100% HIDPI is too small to keep using.

I hope this problem will be solved one day.

Which app (or Preview Handler) are you using for PDF? Adobe Acrobat?

When you resize the window the problem disappears, right?

Yes, adjusting to 100% solves the problem.
But if I set the HIDPI to 100% on the 4k monitor, I can't use the PC.
My eyes will fall out.

No, I meant resize the XYplorer window or the Preview Panel. This usually fixes the alignment of the preview.

Oh I understand what you mean
You're right
Extending the left part to the end to cover the entire list solves the problem.

In an attempt to reproduce the issue here I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 21.7 but I could not see an problem. I tried 150%, not 200% (my screen is not large enough for 200%).

I have some questions to you:
1) Do you see the problem also at 150%?
2) What is your Windows version?
3) Does your PDF preview show multiple pages of a PDF, or just an image of the first page?

To whom it may concern: I used this GUID in User-Defined Preview Handlers to enforce the Acrobat preview over my PDF-XChange preview:
pdf>{CA8A9780-280D-11CF-A24D-444553540000}
I'm not sure if that's right one. The preview shows only an image of the first page. Adobe has no better preview?

You must be committed to resolution to install Adobe on your rig, sorry can't help with the GUID since I would never install it myself, but I am 99% sure that Adobe would provide more than the first page preview, so the one you are using is probz incorrect, also going off the info provided in the below thread I don't think the issue is software specific anyway, and maybe this conversation would be more suited to be continued in that [recently merged] topic:

viewtopic.php?p=193307#p193307

FYI I use Sumatra and 125%, and have never seen the described issue.

@iamseoul: Please use the linked topic to provide requested info, and continue this subject.

You are right in many ways. It was psychologically difficult to install this product on my computer, and my disdain continued to grow when I opened it and was struck by a combination of poor design and greed for money. Anyway, when I took a closer look at what was going on, I saw that the GUID actually did nothing and the preview I saw was actually created by PDF-XChange.

At the moment (with PDF-XChange installed) I don't find a way to see Adobe-made PDF-previews in XYplorer. :eh:
