HTML5 Extension Panel Size

[Narayan Sultania]

Hi,

I have created HTML5 extension for InDesign CC 2019 onwards. The panel size is fixed (Size, MaxSize, MinSize is set to same values in manifest.xml).

How is the panel size affected by the display settings on Windows machine?

I have noticed the following,

1. Display 100% - Panel opens fine.

2. Display 125% - Panel size is not correct. The size seems to increase every time I open the panel. How can I fix the size?

Thanks,

Narayan

This is a known issue and in CC2018 & CC2019, I have experienced it only on a WIN machine with a high-resolution display. I have not tested it in the latest builds to check the status, it's fixed in the new builds I suppose. Now you can do two things

• Change the panel type from panel to a dialog, it worked for me
• You could set the min, max, and normal size to differ by a small amount, if i remember correctly you may land into a combination that works. See the same being discussed in this post as well https://community.adobe.com/t5/exchange/extension-resizing-bug/m-p/10295292#M1227

Hi Manan,

Thanks for the reply.

I increased max by 1 and decresed min by 1 so that all (Size, MaxSize, MinSize) are different. And it seems to fix the size issue.

Thanks,
