Windows scaling issues with ArcMap 10.2 on rMBP running Windows 8.1

Hi all,
Sorry if this question is covered elsewhere, I ran a search and didn't find anything useful.
I recently installed Windows 8.1 on my 13'' rMBP late 2013 model using Boot Camp 5.1, along with all the drivers. The install seemed to go fine, and scaling of windows for things like internet explorer, pdfs, etc is appearing normal. However, when I use ArcMap 10.2 the menu items at the top of the window become tiny, see below.
I don't seem to have this problem with a related program (ArcCatalog), so I'm not sure what it could be. I've just tried playing with the settings under Screen Resolution but nothing seems to be working.
If anyone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Christine

  • Scaling issues with Windows 8.1 and 3200x1800 displays?

    What about scaling issues with CS6 Illustrator and Photoshop?  I have a hidpi 3200x1800 13" laptop with win 8.1 and can't use the software because of the tiny text.
    Thanks,

    CS6 was released before HiDpi displays were common and there are no adjustments in that program.
    You can try going into Preferences > Interface and changing the UI Font Size to Large.
    You could also try lowering your display resolution until  is decently readable.
    Another step is joining Creative Cloud. Photoshop CC 2014 has 200% UI Scaling.
    $50/month for all apps or $10/month for Photoshop/Lightroom.
    There are intro and educational offers if you can get on them.

  • Bug/scaling issue with Adobe CC etc on 4K displays

    Hi, I'm an issue with Photoshop in particular, but it also happens with some other programs.
    My screen is 4K Ultra HD and because of this the menus etc. appear incredibly small at the side of the screen (see photo). This is the case with some other programs as well (but not the very recent ones such as Microsoft Office 2013).
    This is the latest trial version of Photoshop CC, but also happens with my previous CS3 versions which I installed and my Sony Vegas software too.
    I've tried lowering the resolution on the computer to 1920x1080 instead of the default Ultra HD (3840x2160) but when I do that the entire desktop becomes large and pixelated, but the problem in the Photoshop programs remain.
    Any help would be really appreciated. I bought this laptop specifically for graphic design and illustration but this issue makes that impossible. Thank you.

    Thanks so much, it seems simple now you say it but I couldn't figure it out!
    Thanks for the quick reply, too!

  • AE scaling issues with Windows 8.1 and 3200x1800 displays?

    Hi There,
    I run AE, Premiere, Photoshop all CS6 and on a Windows 8.1 - 3200x1800 laptop and it seem like all Adope Products - also Lighroom 4.4 don't scale properly. All buttons are about half the size of the mouse arrow.  Really pain for the eyes and back having to work like that.
    Tried Corel Draw X3 from 2006 and it works perfectly. Almost all other Programs don't seem to have this issue.
    Will this be fixed soon?
    Thanks.

    This was leaked about the Windows update coming in April.  Do you think this will fix it?

  • How do you fix scaling issue with any video playback control bar (too small to see) on Firefox 28?

    Using a 3200x1800 dpi resolution lap top (Samsung Ultrabook 9 series), when I want to play videos on a webpage, the playback control bar (runs across the bottom of a given video for settings like play, pause, sound level, etc.) is too small to see. I tried scaling using various methods, Windows 8.1 OS, Firefox ad-ons like No squint with no success. Of course, these tools work to rescale everything else but the playback control bar. This is not a problem on IE as when you rescale, everything including the playback control bar
    rescales. Thanks

    You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to 1.0 or on Windows 8 to 1.25 and if necessary adjust layout.css.devPixelsPerPx starting from 1.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps (1.1 or 0.9) to make icons show correctly.

  • Design issue with sharing LV2 style global between run-time executables

    Hi,
    Just when I though that I had everything figured out, I ran into this design issue.
    The application that I wrote is pretty much a client-server application where the server publishes data and the client subscribes data using data sockets. Once the client gets all the data in the mainClient.vi program, I use LV2 style (using shift registers) to make the data global to all the other sub-vi’s. So the LV2 is in initialize mode in the mainClient.vi program and then in the sub-vi’s the LV2 is in read mode. Also, I had built the run time menu for each sub-vi that when an item is selected from the menu, I would use the get menu selection to get the item tag which will be the file nam
    e of the sub-vi and open the selected sub-vi using vi server. This all worked great on my workstation where I have labVIEW 7.0 Express installed. But the final goal is to make exe’s for each of these sub-vi’s and install runtime on the PC’s that do not have labVIEW installed. Of course when I did that only the mainClient.exe program was getting the updated data from the server but the sub-vi’s were not getting the data from the mainClient.exe. I did realize that the reason for this is due to the fact that I had compiled all the sub-vi’s separately and so the LV2 vi is now local to each executable (i.e. all executables have their own memory location). Also, the run-time menu did not work because now I am trying to open an executable using vi server properties.
    To summarize, is there a way to share LV2 style global's between executables without compiling all of the sub-vi’s at one time? I tried using data-sockets (local-host) instead of LV2 st
    yle gloabls to communicate between the sub-vi’s but I ran into performance issues due to the large volume of data.
    I would really appreciate it if anyone can suggest a solution/alternative to this problem.
    Thanks

    >
    If the LV2 global is loaded statically into your mainClient.vi, then any
    other application can connect to the exe and get a reference to the VI
    using the VI name. This gives you a VI reference you can use to call
    the VI. Ye
    s, the values will be copied between applications. That is
    why you need to add access operations to the global that returns just
    the info needed. If you need the average, do that in the global. If
    you need the array size, do that in the global. Returning the entire
    array shouldn't be a common operation on the LV2 style global anyway.

    Your app does need to watch both the amount of data being passed across
    the network, and the amount being shared between the apps. You might
    want to consider puttin
    g the VIs back into the main app. What is the
    reason you are breaking them apart for?

  • Issue with groups not being able to run applications on remote server

    Hi all..
    I've got an older PowerMac G5 running 10.5.8 that gets the OpenDirectory accounts from our MacMini server running 10.6.5. I've got a group setup called "Children" that my kids belong to and which is managed care of the Workgroup manager. However, I find that some of my apps can't be run by any of the kids if they're in subdirectories within /Applications. They receive a "The operation could not be completed because you do not have enough access privileges." I've tried playing around with various settings and finally decided to not restrict access to any applications but the problems remain.. Some apps can be run just fine but others are out of reach.. Any ideas on how to fix this or perhaps diagnose it?
    Thx!

    Hi
    Another approach is to create a folder in the local Administrators Home folder. Name it Applications. Place the applications you want to restrict access to into that folder. If you have ARD you could use the mkdir and mv commands to achieve this. In some situations I find this an easier way of managing applications rather than what's available in WorkGroup Manager. For me it only tends to work with Apple's built in applications effectively. Anything else is liable to cause a problem along the lines you mention. Some 3rd-Party applications can have dependencies that may be sited in different locations. The trick is tracking down them.

  • Anyone has issue with macbook pro retina 15'' (ivybridge) running OS X Mavericks ?

    It seemed pretty obvious to my that the computer's ability to response the command was reduced when multitasking. There were also some graphical lags when moving apps around the screen and going in and out of the Mission Control ? I wondered is it the firmware itself or it is the hardware

    You've probably tried these already.
    Check the cpu and energy tabs to find out what processes are sucking up power as a first clue.  Second, you can try an SMC reset if something is severely off and the fan is running hard.  Third, check screen brightness is the same as it was before. 
    I've found better battery performance on a 2010 Macbook Air.

  • QHD+ Resolution Scaling Issues Windows 8

    I've read that QHD+ resolution monitors like the Dell Precision m3800 with a 3200x1800 resolution screen are having scaling issues with Windows 8, and even 8.1. Some programs scale correctly, but I have specifically heard Adobe programs including Adobe After Effects do NOT scale correctly.
    Are there plans to fix this with the next Windows release? Or a patch before then?
    Any rough estimate as to when that would be?
    Does it work at the moment to scale the monitor down to a lower resolution to fix it? Is it in fact tested and not just assumed. (I have no way of checking and can't get a straight answer)
    I want to buy this laptop soon, but I need it for After Effects and if it's not usable, it won't be a good buy. Would love to have some concret answers!
    Thanks!
    Kim

    The CC versions of Adobe programs support high-DPI displays, but not older ones. If you use an older version, this won't change. Nobody goes back to old code.

  • HT5219 When can we expect a fix for the Windows 8.1 hot-plug issue with a Thunderbolt device.

    When can we expect a fix for the Windows 8.1 hotplug issue with a Thunderbolt device.  I got a dock to easy my up-and-go time when moving from using my laptop on the desk vs in meetings.  Instead my computer crashes and I have to reboot.
    I am seeing this issue with the 2012 Macbook pro Retina running Bootcamp with Windows 8.1 x64 bit with the F4U055 Dock from Belkin

    I can confirm that hotplug does work properly on Windows 8.1 with Asus Thunderbolt ExII (Thunderbolt 2)
    But does not work with Windows 8.1 and MacBook Pro Retina (Thunderbolt 1)
    To get hot plug working with the Asus Thunderbolt ExII, you install the intel thunderbolt drivers, and then you get an interface where you can eject devices, and do things like setup more detailed security. However, this doesn't have any effect with the MacBook Pro. I suspect that either:
    1) Apple's Thunderbolt hardware doesn't support hotplugging on windows
    2) Hotplugging on Windows requires Thunderbolt 2
    So, I should check on my Mac Pro (dustbin edition) to see if it works there with Thunderbolt II
    Be great to hear if anybody has any success with this on an Apple device!

  • Resolution issue with macbook pro 13 (late 2013) and dell u2711

    I have a Dell U2711 (native resolution 2560x1440) that I use without issue with a macbook pro late 2007 (running 10.10.x), various iMacs and Macbook air 2011 running 10.10. When I say without issue, the display works at its native resolution.
    Last week we got a MacBook Pro 13in, late 2013 model.
    If I connect this macbook via either thunderbolt connection to the u2711 using either DVI port on the dell, the maximum resolution that I can use is 1920x1080. I am using apple mini displayport to DVI adaptors (I have tried 2 different ones and 2 different DVI cables, with no improvement). Clicking option + scaled in sys prefs does not give the native resolution as an option.
    However, I just discovered that if I use a DVI to HDMI adaptor and I connect the macbook to the display I get the full native resolution without issue (2560x1440).
    I have zapped the pram, powered down the display etc etc etc and it made no difference.
    I would prefer to use the mini DIsplayPort to DVI adaptor rather than HDMI, any suggestions appreciated.
    TIA.

  • Graphics scaling issues in Flash Builder 4.5.1

    Please review this screen shot. Details follow the image.
    FB 4.5.1
    applicationDPI = "160"
    Graphics using MultiDPIBitmapSource scale fairly well.
    Graphics used for these properties do not scale well at all:
    1) ViewMenuItem's "icon" property.
    2) List itemRenderer IconItemRenderer "decorator" property.
    3) TabbedViewNavigatorApplication's "splashScreenImage" property.
    These graphics assets end up with horrible scaling artifacts, making them unusable. So, I cannot use icons with Menus or Lists or a splash image.
    I've reviewed all of Adobe's documentation and followed all of their recommendations for creating graphics assets for use in a mobile applications. Simple graphics with no curved lines or angles less than 90 degrees scale well. Anything else does not.
    Attached is a screen shot comparing the scaling issues at 160, 240 and 320 dpi with applicationDPI = "160". It is using an FXG graphic created in Illustrator CS5.5.
    The FXG graphic was embedded in the s:IconItemRenderer  like this: decorator = "{images.arrow_list_icon}". 
    For testing purposes, I also tried switching the decorator at runtime based on the applicationDPI, but of course this fails as the application still scales the graphic whenever the application's applicationDPI property is specified. 
    <s:List>
    <s:itemRenderer>
    <fx:Component>
    <s:IconItemRenderer
    decorator = "{chooseDecorator()}" 
    <fx:Script>
    //This code selects a different FXG asset based on the DPI reported at runtime. 
    import images.arrow_list_icon160;
    import images.arrow_list_icon240;
    import images.arrow_list_icon320;
    import mx.core.FlexGlobals; 
    protected function chooseDecorator():Class {
        var rtnVal:Class;
        switch (FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.runtimeDPI) {
            case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_160:
                rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon160;
                break;
            case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_240:
                rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon240;
                break;
            case mx.core.DPIClassification.DPI_320:
                rtnVal=images.arrow_list_icon320;
                break;
        return rtnVal;
    </fx:Script>
    Has anyone come up with methods which can be used to avoid scaling issues with these items when setting the applicationDPI property?

    Chances are that you'll get better answers for this question on the Flex general discussion forum. This forum is visited more by engineers on the tooling team while the latter has people from the Flex SDK team.

  • EIM/WIM integration issue with UCCE

    I have configured the ICM AW as per the document of deployment of CIM 9, all the MRD and application instances and skillgroups are created  for each MRD and also added the agents in the member of the skillgroups, now I am running the integration wizard on EIM server everything goes fine till the agent  addition window appears which appears to be blank now I don't know what am I missing in it, may be its something in the pg explorer MRD which I have tried with everything but the agent are not showing up, anybody have any idea, why the agents are not showing up,,????
    One more thing we have a generic pg for agent and CVP and an MR pg for dialer and one pim for CIM..any issue with it??

    When you run Integration wizard do you get Agent PG? and for selected Agent PG do you have any Agent Configured ?
    Check Your Application Path list and Application Path, check correct Agent PG is configured.
    once again walk through,
    Cisco Unified Web and E-Mail Interaction Manager Deployment and Maintenance Guide and check all the configurations are in the place.
    i think Generic PG is supported, and that how it is done in Package CCE where Generic PG and MR PG installed on same Machine.
