Full-size SAS Guide text editor

I have a very annoying problem 😞 My SAS Guide program editor is huge and it's not the zoom as the zoom is at 100%. Does anybody know how to solve this?

It's not the font size but thanks 😞

it's something very strange. It's like the editor is only zoomed in even though it's not. Even the scrollbar is huge.

Check your Windows disability settings.

It's not the accessibility settings but thanks. It's all standard and normal. My co-worker has the same settings and his SAS editor is fine. I think I will need to reinstall because of this 😞

Not the accessibility per se but the adjustments that Windows added to handle high DPI (dots per inch) monitors. Basically they can scale the applications so that say a 10 point font looks large enough to see. It is possible in Windows to tell the system to not rescale particular applications. Or rescale them differently.

How old is your version of Enterprise Guide?

It might be time to update.

Thanks for the info. it's a problem without solution. I'll decrease the font size to minimize.

That looks like an older version of EG. EG 8 (currently 8.3) works a lot better if you have a multi-monitor setup. I'd suggest upgrading rather than putting up with problems in an older version.
