Parameter Menu Pop Up ramdom sizes

[joe]

This might be a known bug, but I have to ask. My Parameter Menu pop up's appear in random collapsed sizes especially in Cam. For instance if I open an operation window and select anything other than the first tab the window becomes small and I have to use the scroll bar to see options. If I click the first tab first the widows after that are full size.  Windows 7

The dialogs tend to work better if they are docked to the side of the screen. In the model workspace they work better if they're docked like this.

Dock the dialog on the right first then dock the Sketch palette to it.

It seems that there is more trouble with Cam pop ups. Take a look.

I see the same problems if I dock the dialog to the left of the screen. I complained about similar problems in the model workspace a while a go and it was pointed out the dialog will resize if it's docked to the right side of the screen. Don't know when it will get fixed but it looks like resizing of undocked works better than it used to so they are working on it.

They still don't work well if you dock them like this.

Someone else did report this problem but they gave up and stopped using Fusion before the problem was solved, some people have no patients. @innovatenate Can you help.

EDIT, Does anything happen if you click the plus sign at the top of the dialog?

Hi

I tried to click to the plus icon but it disappears when i move my cursor close to it...

I do micro-controller projects too and done some bug workarounds... i don't give up easily 🙂

Thanks for your help, i hope we find some solutions.

This looks similar to this forum thread.

Have you installed any custom fonts on this system? 

Also, could you try the following steps?
1. Close Fusion 360

2. In Windows Explorer, browse to 

C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Neutron Platform\Options\***\

*** These folders will have custom names based upon your windows user account and your autodesk id.

3. Delete NULastDisplayedLayout.xml

4. Start Fusion 360 and retest

I hope that helps!

Thanks,
