Menu & Windows Sized Incorrectly

Community Beginner ,
Sep 15, 2019 Sep 15, 2019

When using Lightroom Classic the sizing of different elements (menu, tabs, fonts) is inconsistent. When tabs are open it's actually impossible to even see check boxes and the accompanied text. This is only happening with Lightroom so I'm confident the issue it confined to this program.

UPDATE: I have reset Lightroom preferences and this is what I'm seeing now (on a 23" monitor). Everything is huge.

LR doesn't share any user-interface code with Photoshop or other Adobe products, so it doesn't matter how they behave.

 

Most people with this sort of issue find that changing the Windows Settings > System > Display > Scale to 100% and LR Font Size to Automatic makes the problems go away, and some find other settings make it go away.

What is the current setting of Preferences > Interface > Font Size?  Try different sizes -- LR doesn't always handle the display scaling on Windows very well.

Everything looks good on the laptop, but I'm still having issues when I move the window to my second screen.

What is the current setting of Preferences > Interface > Font Size?

 

In Windows, what is the current setting of Settings > System > Display > Scale?  (100% or something different?)

I'm running Photoshop (and other Adobe products) without any of these issues so I'm disinclined to think it's a settings issue. I did play around with scale but it didn't seem to fix the issue. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Looks like selecting my second screen as my main monitor and following your font size suggestion did the trick. Thank you John!
