    Size is usually a Windows Display setting issue. 

    When your display gets detected by Windows it wants to display things at the highest possible Resolution/DPI for that manufacturer.  Makes for a very clear picture, but also makes things small. 

    So then, instead of LOWERING THE Resolution/DPI to make things larger (which I think is MUCH more effective).  Folks use a completely different setting in Windows to jack things up by more than 100% (usually see it at 150%). Timeslips doesn’t handle anything other than 100% well, and you get things cut off, etc. (screen shots are of Windows 10)

     

     

    Sometimes, instead of lowering the Resolution/DPI, you can right click on the icon for the software on the desktop and go to properties > Compatibility > Disable display scaling on high DPI settings/Override high DPI scaling behavior. I believe with Windows 10 you have to choose "Application". This will allow the rest of your machine to use the screen resolution you set but will let Timeslips display properly.

     

     Hope that helps.
