Adjust the size of the Tools icons

Post by PaperWaspNest »

Hi all -
I am getting back into Moho after a long break and am running into a UI issue.
In Moho 13.5.5, the tools menu seems absurdly large compared to the rest of the program. The icons are actually cut off in some cases.
This seems independent of the Windows UI scaling, which affects the whole program. Even if I scale that down, the Tools icons are always huge and partially cut-off in the tools menu.
I can't seem to resize the tools window even if I undock it. Can I adjust this anywhere?

Thanks, looking forward to getting some rigs going!

If you're using Debut, I'd suspect Beginner Mode is enabled.
Otherwise, no idea.

That sounds very strange.

What happens if you set your display to a higher resolution? That could make everything too small but I'm wondering if this makes the tools window look more normal on your display relative to the rest of Moho.

If that works and and everything becomes too tiny, you may need to use Windows scaling to compensate. Unfortunately, Windows scaling is known to potentially cause other UI problems on some computers. Maybe by increasing the scale in increments of 100 would be okay? Like scaling up to 200%? You might need to experiment with different settings.

Sorry, I know that's not a lot to go on.

FWIW, I've been trying to force Moho to make my tool icons double-size on purpose. I have seen it do that before a long time ago but not sure what causes that yet. If I stumble on something that causes this or can think of anything else to try, I'll let you know.

Oh its actually worse than I thought.
The icons are huge, but the hit area for the buttons is still small so everything is misaligned!

I'll fiddle around with more settings to see if I can fix this.
