control nesting 5.59 screen size

Post by mark mcbride »

Hello

The control nesting screen for the new update(5.59) is to big to fit onto my monitor and I do not see a way to resize it. To see the different options i have to drag the screen around. Is there a trick to this im missing? Is anyone else having the same issue?

Thanks
Mark

I just logged on here to report exactly the same thing, Mark.

I was going to simply resize the desktop, but it is at 1024 x 768 and will not go any higher.

Looks like it is the font size causing it... the letters are HUGE! :lol:

I discussed this situation with engineering, to change Font size:

Go into "machine.ini" file located in C:\Rolling Nest directory, Under the word "[Settings]" put the following:

MainFontSize=8

This setting will stay. Updates will not affect it.
