Horizontal scroll bar covers component colour swatch

[DanielZhuk]

Hi! The horizontal scroll bar covers the component colour swatch of all components. Not.. ideal.

Attached a gif animation of the situation.

Could this be solved by having the scroll bar just a tad higher or see-through?

Kind regards.

Hi,

This looks like a graphic problem.
Check your graphic settings and the drivers.

Hi Günther!

Thank you for your help again. 

I'll look into it. Do you mean checking if my graphic card drivers are up to date? What do you mean with the graphic settings?

Have a nice weekend.

Kind regards.

1. yes, this is the first and the settings  > resolution ....

2. in the forum there were similar messages some time ago.
I can't find it at the moment. But it was about MAC/OS and contexts to 4k settings.

Dear Günther,

Thank you for your help.

I just updated my display adaptor driver to the latest version, but the issue remains. 

In Fusion, I went into 'Preferences, but cannot find anything regarding 'resolution'. 

The 'Preferences > graphics' tab doesn't show anything out of place either. 

I'm on a Windows 10, so I'm not sure if the MAC solution would apply. I was not able to find anything else related on the forums.

Is this not possibly a bug/UI for improvement? How does your horizontal scroll bar look when you have a file with lots of features and components and the component colour swatch turned on?

Kind regards,

Hi! So far no luck. 

I believe this a bug in Fusion.

The horizontal scroll bar (which appears when the history tree is large)prevents it to see the component colour swatch underneath it. 

Could this please be solved by the team?

Kind regards.

This is probably not a Fusion 360 UI problem, it is your computer graphics.  Have you tried the Preferences setting for the Graphics using OpenGL settings?  As you can see below, I am on Windows 10 also and I do not see the issue.

Dear @jhackney1972 ,

Thank you for your help!

Unfortunately, neither DirectX 9, DirectX 11, or OpenGL Core Profile seemed to have any effect. I restarted Fusion360 after each change.  

But it's good to know that it is not a bug in Fusion360 but something I need to fix on my computer. 

Would you have an idea of what other settings I could tweak? The graphic drivers are already updated to their latest version.

Kind regards,

Dan

PS: I accidentally clicked on the 'select as solution button' in the e-mail.

Still no luck. Anyone who knows what the solution could be?

Hi!

A Fusion tech representative found out that my problem had to do with display resolution scaling on my laptop. 

On my windows, I had set a custom scaling of 125% which was causing the problem.

The problem with the horizontal scroll bar gets solved when changing the custom scaling to a number from Window's pre-defined drop-down instead, like 125%.

Maybe this will help some people.

In my situation, I need to keep using the custom scaling instead of the scaling from the drop-down. So for me the problem is not solved yet. But the issue is picked up by the Fusion team and will be solved in the future for custom scaling as well.
