For which display size is Labview 2012 optimized?

[Avtomatik]

Hi, 

I have a lap top with a high resolution (1920x1080). After I installed Labview2012, on some of the dialog boxes, ex. Tools->Options (see attached image) not all text is shown completely.

Also, when I opened VI designed for a lower resolution display I get overlapping on labels and controls.

Can anyone tell me if this is due only to the display resolution or also the Labview? And to what display size is Labview2012 optimized?

Regards

What do you mean by a VI designed for lower resolution.

Can you show us a picture of that vi ?

Is there at difference in the Windows that you have used to develop that VI, and the windows version you are using now ?

About the option dialog box, you know that you can drag the border to make it bigger?

That will probably show the last word that you are missing.

The VI was designed to fit a 19" display with 1280x800 resolution and was developed on a 32bit Windows 7 with Labview 2012.

Now I am using 64bit Wndows 7 and labview 2012. So when I loaded the same VI from the previous PC, all the controls and label are overlapping.

It looks to me like you've set windows fonts to Large, casuing labels to increase in size.

From LV 8(?) to 2009 (or is it a windows thing?) the standard font increased from 14 to 15 causing some mess in block diagrams.

Hi, I found the problem. The text size DPI in my Windows display settings was set to 120 DPI. After I changed to 96 DPI the text and labels returned to their normal positions.
