Re: Tiny display in Win 8.1

Actually, I retried Puybaret's fix above and it works now! It didn't make any difference at all before, but I am now able to set the text size to 30 and it is perfect! Thank you so much!

Also, the furniture pallet is squished together and unreadable. Is there a propertied file somewhere that controls this behavior that I can ...
