That's an excellent screen

That's an excellent screen shot of that bug. Maybe John should borrow it and use it to help people figure out when they are suffering from it!

Those fonts look huge!

What are the size of the fonts set to in the current Windows theme?

PAM has 2 font sizes and he is using the bigger one.

I think it is the DPI

I think it is the DPI setting. It's listed as a bug in PAM. I get it when it is set at 120% (I think, it's been a while). I don't think the size of the fonts used with it helps much; about all that helps us using beta 4.

Yes its the DPI, its a

Yes its the DPI, its a fairly common problem (alas) that people don't check that when they calculate the window - even Nvidia's ntune doesn't do it!

The beta is better, though if you use large fonts the end of the words get cut off - ie, "OpenOffice.org Writer Po" - what's wrong with allowing people to resize it? Smile
