Oversized menus in an external, lower resolution monitor

Post by *Jerez »

Menus such as the 'multiple rename' tool, or the 'options' come up way too large in a monitor attached to a laptop; the main TC window looks fine. The secondary display is configured in Win10 as the 'Main Display'. The external monitor has a resolution of 1920x1080, whereas the laptop has a 3000x2000 resolution. It looks as if somehow the 'menus' are displaying in 'laptop resolution' on the secondary display. Any suggestions? I searched in this forum but could not find a solution.

Cordially, Jerez

Try changing "Configuration" -> "Options..." -> "Font" -> "Dialog box scaling..." while you have TC's main window positioned at each of the two monitors - TC should save the setting separately for each monitor.
