Question

Problem with Module buttons not displaying properly.

Hi, I have recently purchased a new PC with a 4K screen.  if I use a Lightroom Catalogue from my old PC  (smaller resolution screen) the Module buttons display correctly.  However if I use a Lightroom Catalogue created on my new PC the Module buttons are enormous, I can see about 1/3 of the Library button!  Have tried going into Identity Plate Setup and setting the Module buttons font and size to the same as the old catalogue which displays correctly but this makes no difference.  Any ideas please?

    Hi Akash,

    I amusing Lightroom Classic CC V7.3.1

    Further information, I have now totally lost the Module picker buttons from the identity plate area.  Tried altering the scaling but no improvement. Most puzzling thing is I have 4 catalogues on my copy of Lightroom and problem is only on the catalogue created on the new PC, catalogues from my old PC have no problems.  When using problem catalogue identity plate itself displays perfectly, it is just the module picker buttons, originally were so large could only see about the first 3 letters of library, I think they were showing 258 point, but when I changed them it had no effect and when I opened the Identity Plate Editor again they had gone back to 258 point.  Have tried turning module picker button on and off but no difference. Current status module picker buttons turned on but not visible and in identity plate editor no text visible for module picker buttons.

    If you right-click on the Identity Plate, what is selected under "Identity Plate" (should be a choice of Adobe ID, Lightroom Classic CC or Personalized)? Selecting either Adobe ID or Lightroom Classic CC should restore the default sizing of the Module Picker buttons.

    Hi Jim,

    Thanks for the quick response.  What I am trying to achieve is being able to view the module picker buttons when I have a Custom Identity Plate.  I can do this in the 3 catalogues from my old PC but not in the one created on my new PC.  Reason for wanting to use a custom Identity Plate is to quickly remind myself which catalogue I am using, by setting an appropriate title.

    Hi athomas2,

    Which version of Lightroom are you using?

    Could you please try changing scaling to 100% in Windows settings as mentioned here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3025083/windows-scaling-issues-for-high-dpi-devices and let us know if that helps displaying the Lightroom UI correctly.

    Also, refer this discussion Lightroom: Fonts are too small to select font for Module Picker | Photoshop Family Customer Community and let us know if that helps.

    Regards,

    Akash
