Hello! New user here I am trying to get into Rhino but having difficulties with the UI glitch. My laptop (1920x1080p) is connected to an external monitor (2560x1440p) UI has some strecthed text and disappearing icons that makes it unusable. I am on Windows 11 and tried re-installing drivers and also software but those didnt helped. Any solution?

Thanks in advance

Sami

Do you see the same if you don’t connect your external monitor?

What region settings are you using?

Can you try a repair of Rhino to see if that resolves this?

I connected my laptop to another monitor which has 1920x1200 resolution via directly hdmi port and this seems ok no problems so far.

But its weird that the problem occurs connecting through usb type C hub that has hdmi 2560x1440 resolution output. No other program do this kind of visual problems its only Rhino.

I guess its something about resolution scaling.
