Problems using TC in Surface Book

Post by *jocarbkk »

Wondering whether anyone else has encountered some of the problems I'm having using TC in a Surface Book

- right click not working (touchpad and external USB mouse)

- very small font in dialogue boxes that make them almost impossible to read (using 3000x2000 resolution)

- difficulties adjusting column widths in synchronize/compare dialogue windows

Any ideas?
Thanks

1. You need to hold down the right mouse button for about 1 second to get that menu in the default configuration, or switch to left mouse button selection mode in Configuration - Options - Operation.

2. TC uses the DPI (dots per inch) settings of the system. They may be too low. Please add the following string to the file wincmd.ini, section [Configuration]:
OverrideDPI=150

Try values between 150 and 400. You can edit the wincmd.ini via Configuration - Change settings files directly.

3. That's probably because the line is very narrow on such a high resolution screen.
