Is it just my system or is the Fount really tiny now? If it's not me how can I get the font back to the size it was before? I cant hardly see it. Also when I start typing in a command and the pop up suggestion list appears the list items are folded on top of each other so I can only see half is each item. Again, is this my computer? I'm running Win8 on a high def touchscreen HP Envy laptop. confused

Here's a snip of what I see now:

Dave, I'm running Win 8.1 and do see the smaller print but don't get the half sentences that your picture shows.

Strange - windows resolutions and dpi are all over the place...

I'll take a peak and see what I can do:D

Dave gets half sentences because he's running a higher dpi outside of the windows standard. Pretty much all of ARC will behave a little funny with a higher dpi, but that's how windows works:(
