OK…found the problem!!!
I decided, just for gigles, to change the main monitor to 100% scaling (it is a 4K monitor, so it’s set at 150 as other said on this forum would work). Well it doesn’t. The minute I switch it to 100% scaling it works like it’s supposed to - perfectly.
Now…is there a solution? I can’t work with a 4k monitor at 100% scaling - my eyesight is bad enough as it is. Any suggestions? Is this a bug that I need to report to SU? Again, works in Adobe products.
SCALING! you can set it to upto 500% but it isn’t recommended.
Found a solutions. The second monitor needs to be at the same scaling as the first monitor. So both are at 150% and works. Not great since the 2nd monitor is now having all windows super big and wasting a lot of space, but a workable solution.
Still sounds like a bad bug with SU.
Others here said that SU doesn’t like scaling above 150%. On a 4K monitor anything less becomes useless as everything is very small.
I didn’t read it but it sounds like a good place to start.
Thanks Mics. That’s how I set the different scaling settings for the monitors during this task. Definitely is a SU problem since Adobe has it right.
“you may notice that some apps completely suck at the new resolution, while others rock. If I had to guess this is more about developers packaging low DPI assets in their programs than anything else.”
I think you may be right.
You must be using an older version of Sketchup, your profile doesn’t say which.
Sketchup has addressed scaling issues for 4K monitors in recent releases.
sorry man. that’s all I got.
Thanks Mics.
Box - all is the latest versions. Two week old build with all new drivers and software.
Using SU pro latest build.
