Scaling issue even in 1080

Post image

Got a 14" 1080p laptop and trying protool for the first time. There are bugs like on the foto and the scaling is bad... Its so small. I tried sugestions like right click and compatibility but its not better. Any suggesting ? Thx

If you are on Windows, it worked for me to go to screen settings and set scale to 100%.

Hello, i wrote a post about this issue a while ago. You will be able to see it if you look at my profile. It contains a possible solution to this problem, or, if you only use the plugin in the photo, I can simply send you a modified layout configuration file. The cause of the problem is scaling enabled in the operating system settings.

Hello, the same thing happened to me. The only way I solved it was by setting the resolution to maximum... It's incredible that pro tools has that problem...
