Hidden OK and Cancel Buttons in "Edit LCD Line" window

Post by Bill »

I've been using LCD Smartie 5.4.2.92 Beta for a while now and just ran into a few problems with it on only one of my PCs.

There is some weird behavior with the windows in the application itself. The colored window for the on-screen LCD is larger than it should be. It partially obscures the Setup and Hide buttons. Also, the "Edit LCD Line" window does not have the OK and Cancel buttons at the bottom. The only way to save the text is to tab to the hidden OK button and press enter.

Everything has been working fine and I can't figure out what changed and when. I tried downloading the application again and ran it in it's downloaded state (i.e. none of my files) and the problem still exists. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried restoring your pc with the problem back to a previous state? Maybe you have a small virus or a setting was changed on that pc if you recently downloaded a program. It happeneds all the time. Try that and see if smartie wants to work then.

I was never able to fix this problem. Unfortunately I didn't have a restore point that went back far enough.

I took another look last night and finally figured this out. I forgot that I had changed the size of the system text from "Smaller" (100%) to "Medium" (125%). Apparently the LCDSmartie LCD screen and "Edit LCD Line" window are not compatible with this setting. An update to fix this would be appreciated.
