Im getting the same thing.  Sometimes displays properly but after a short period will jump to this.  Im running dual monitors, one 4k one 1920x1080 but ive tried setting both to 1920 and no dice.  Also, have tried adjusting interface font size in preferences but again...nothing.  Also i have my nvidia drivers up to do date.  Running a GTX980ti

Its very very annoying.  anyone know a fix?  See attached example

Hello @marcus, hello @Anonymous,

as mentioned from another user already:

Do you have both V-ray installed? As unloading Vray seem to fix the issue for some guys.

Can you do just a test and see, if this is Vray related or not.

Other than that:

Maya's font control comes from /Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2015/resources/MayaStrings (a utf-8 text file).

from 28570th line to  28673th line.


Change the font size from 9 to 10 or 11 will enlarge the size of
character on menus.

A font that is set too large may disturb the UI.

I hope that helpful?

Awaiting your reply.

Something that may be a culprit, if you're using Nvidia cards;

Launch NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D settings > Global Settings > DSR - OFF

DSR is an automated resolution scaler, hence the tiny text.

I hope it works!
