Why does my fmod look like this (UI scaling issue)

It used to be normal. Opened the program one day and it looks like this.

How do I fix it? Already tried uninstalling and reinstalling numerous time to no avail…

Zoom just changes it by 3% up and down

I’m lost

If it helps, I’m on a 2560 x 1080 ultrawide monitor, and using Fmod studio 1.08.12 (because im only trying to do sounds for Assetto Corsa)

Thanks in advance.

It looks like FMOD Studio’s device pixel scale factor may have been changed.

Open the preferences dialog, navigate to the “interface” tab, and look for a property that says “Display: Force pixel scale factor to [some number] (requires restart).”

Try changing this setting. If the checkbox is checked, uncheck it and restart FMOD Studio; if the checkbox is not checked, try checking it and trying a variety of different pixel scale factor values.

Thanks for the reply, when I go to the preferences dialog, I only see this:

Unless, this is the wrong place?

Ah! My apologies. I missed the detail that you were running FMOD Studio version 1.08.12. The property I mentioned was not added until a much later version.

It looks like you’re using some version of Windows. If you open the windows Settings dialogue, navigate to the Ease of Access settings, and select the “Display” category, what are the “Make everything bigger” and “Make text bigger” properties set to?

Ah, that makes sense.

They are set to 100% currently.

Hmm. That’s the default setting, so it shouldn’t cause the kind of appearance change you’re seeing.

If you try changing your resolution or switching to a different monitor, how does that affect the appearance of FMOD Studio?

Well, you are definitely on to something there! I switched my display from extended desktop for multiple displays to duplicate on 2 out of the 3 and now it looks normal!

Thank you so much!

I’m glad you were able to get it working.
