1366 x 768 monitor?

Post by cryptonym »

I was just on some settings screens in the console (not wizard) and noticed odd clipping, like the text is overlaying the main console under it, but not an actual window popped up. It also looks like some left columns were missing and no way to scroll to them. The main controls all seem to work, just settings for coordinate points, etc seem affected.

Is my Asus 15 inch 1366x768 to small for the app to adapt to, or should I collect some screen shots and submit as a bug report?

I saw some threads saying 1080 FHD resolution is preferred, but is it required?

If I need a new monitor, I think I have my father's day gift all picked out, a TD2210 touch screen.

I've probably got the same Asus touchscreen monitor on a small machine, and it works fine for the most part. What screen was it on? What version are you running?

Thanks. So mine should work but maybe shrink some screens. But probably not worth filing any report on. I don't recall seeing the issue before I upgraded to 5.0.

That monitor should be run at 1600 x 900 and it should work just fine

Unfortunately, CNC12 has a set screen size. Windows will not "shrink" the CNC12 screen, it will truncate it.

It was the wcs coordinates screen under motors if I'm remembering correctly. But I just went in there and it is drawing fine now.
