PGuatney Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Does anybody know how to wrangle this command line back to normal? This is a new installation of ACAD Mechanical 2016 on a new laptop running Windows 10. I have been to the DISPLAY tab under OPTIONS and set the command line font to 8, the smallest it offers. Clicked all the apply buttons. No change. Restart does not fix it. This new laptop has a very high resolution: 3840 X 2160 in a 15" monitor. Could this have something to do with it? I will attach a screen shot. Thanks, PG Quote
nod684 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Type OPTIONS go to DISPLAY then FONTS and select a smaller one. Edited March 1, 2016 by nod684 Quote
rkmcswain Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Type OPTIONS go to DISPLAY then FONTS and select a smaller one. The OP has already been there. I have been to the DISPLAY tab under OPTIONS and set the command line font to 8... Quote
RobDraw Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 I don't think AutoCAD is supporting those higher resolutions, yet. I've seen a couple of discussions on it here. Did you try searching for other threads on it? Quote

I seem to recall one of the hotfixes addressed the problems with high resolution displays. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/downloads Quote
ReMark Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Does this adequately explain the problem you are having? If the answer is yes then this may be of some help. I don't vet this stuff; that's your job. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Odd-graphics-display-when-working-with-a-high-resolution-high-dpi-monitor-in-AutoCAD.html Quote
