icons, browser buttons & view cube too small to use in windows 10!

Anonymous — Fri, 15 Apr 2016 00:56:54 GMT

Hi,

Hoping someone can help with this rather annoying problem. I've recently installed product design suite premium on my windows 10 laptop. This is my personal laptop and at work I'm running product design suite premium on a windows 7 64 desktop. Inventor runs on this no probs. It also runs on the windows 10 laptop BUT... When I launch the program, the start up screen is teeny tiny. When it opens, some buttons including browser window and view cube are so incredibly small I cannot see them much less use! I've tried many things to fix this including within the program itself and also the operating system settings but no luck. Starting to think it may be an operating system problem. I've attached a screen shot. Can someone PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi,

You can change the size of the viewcube by right clicking on it and go to options.

The text size and annotation size can be changed in the application options in the general tab.

But I've never seen such small icons in the browser!

What resolution are you running?

Hi,

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately the view cube is already at its
largest setting! Also I've increased the text and annotation size as you
suggest already. Nothing has an effect on those pesky browser buttons. Very
frustrating! Monitor resolution is 3840x2160. Thanks again for your
assistance tho.

Hi Dan,

Forgot to ask, what Inventor version are you running?

Take a look at this post, Inventor 2017 should run much better with high res. displays.

Yeah, running 2016. Definitely sounds like a high res type issue. I'll
download 2017 and see how I go! Many thanks:)
