Recent update broke UI

Working fine early in the week but when I logged in the other day the green banner on top showed that the software has been updated.

 

Since then, Fusion has become usable.

Tried to reinstall but no luck.

 

 

Looks to be a scaling issue in UHD. 

Any ideas?

 

 

Windows 10 64bit

Intel i7 3770k

Nvidia 1080

Oh! Oh! I know this one! I've been having this problem as well, where the mouse seems unresponsive in Fusion, and the UI ignores mouse clicks. What works for me is alt-tabbing away from Fusion and back, then Fusion seems to pick up the mouse inputs again after that.

 

It's super annoying, but usable (for me). Can you confirm if this works for you?

I was facing the exact same issue and one thing I can confirm is that its definitely related to the high DPI scaling.

 

I honestly couldn't figure out what each of these settings did, but a combination of these just works for me. 

 

Here's my settings on the launcher executable (can be reached by right-clicking on Fusion 360 shortcut and "open file location"):

The next executable is the Fusion360.exe (This can be reached by going one folder up from the previous directory and entering the other directory with random name):

Let me know if this fixes it for you.

 

When mine got fixed, I couldn't really reason why it worked - but I just realized that it has to do with scaling.

@Johnogara I can reproduce this if I have the application scaling overridden to System (Enhanced). Fusion is classified as a "DPI Unaware" application by Windows, so overriding the scaling options can have some undesirable side effects.

 

Does this still happen if you either switch the scaling override to Application or System, or disable it entirely?
