Corrupted Fairlight Dynamics Window

PostSat Jun 25, 2022 2:45 pm

Hi,

I think this window was originally OK then I was dragging it around trying to find a place for it where I could also see the audio I was working on. As I recall, I tried dragging it to the laptop screen (from the 32 in 4k external monitor,) and it was crazy big, spilling off the window. So I moved it back onto the 32 in monitor and this is what I got:

(You may have to right-click and "open image in a new tab." How do I fix that? Smaller image? Non-Google link?)

I rebooted, and even upgraded from b4 to b5, but the corruption persists. Please could you let me know:

1) How to restore the original window?

2) Could that window (and others) be resized so it can be positioned in a corner or covering the unused meters perhaps?

Thanks!!

Carey

And now the form has clipped important controls to the point I can no longer use the form.

Could someone tell me how to restore the window to it's normal size without corruption?

Thanks,

Looks GPU driver related. Is the Windows scaling preference set to 100%?

No, in fact it is set to 150% for the 32 inch 4k monitor. Win10 says "Recommended" next to that size on monitor 2. It recommends 300% on the laptop (monitor 1) In both cases to make text readable I'm sure.

Changing monitor 2 (which is driven by the AMD eGPU) to 100% did correct the issue. However the txt is so small I can't read it from arms length away. But it stays fixed as long as I don't drag the window from Monitor 2 (150%, eGPU) to Monitor 1 (300% internal GPU).

I have to have monitor 2 set as the "main" monitor where the taskbar lives or the dragging of the mouse in input boxes on DR causes the mouse pointer to fly away off the screen. That seems to be a scaling issue too. At least it was with DR 17. 16 worked OK. I have not tried putting it back since I installed 18.

Thanks for your help, at least I know how to get it back again.

Why do you suppose it works fine until I cross over to the other monitor (with a different scaling of course) and then gets stuck - restarting DR or the computer does not straighten out that one corrupt window.

By the way, any Blackmagic folks who may see this, only the Dynamics form is being corrupted. The rest of the forms I have used in Fairlight or others are fine.
