Hello guys.
Unfortunately I have a small monitor, so cant change to a higher resolution.
Is there a way to reduce the side panels (already in the minimum width format), so that I can have more space to work with the character?
Thanks

Paulo

Hi...

What is your screen resolution? You really need a minimum of 1920 x 1080 for CC4 to display correctly.

If you are using a lower resolution, then you can go to Window on the Menu Bar and deselect unneeded side panels to give you a larger viewport area.

If you have an HDTV, you can use that for a monitor.

Is there a solution for this yet?  My Laptop Resolution is 3840x2160, and yet the interface doesn't fit the screen properly, important buttons from certain panels are inaccessible, etc.  That said, the size of the laptop monitor is only 15.6", for some reason my desktop with the same resolution and a larger monitor works just fine.

Having the same problem on my laptop with higher than 1920 x 1080 resolution, yet the UI for CC4 is not displaying everything. This is the only software giving me this issue.

Sometimes Windows sets the display scale to a high value like 300. In Display Settings check the scale. I have a 3840x2160 display with the scale at 125% and have no issues.

I have never encountered a case where RL software changed the display resolution or the scale.

Thanks, That indeed seems to be a factor, mine is 250%.  Problem is 125% would require a magnifying glass to read anything on my screen, 175% is usable for CC4, but pretty much rules out multitasking so not really an acceptable solution.

To increase the font size of the interface, try the following:
  1. Right click the short-cut on your desktop and select Properties
  2. Once there, select the Compatibility tab.
  3. Click Change high DPI settings.
  4. On the dialog that opens, under "High DPI scaling override", select System (Enhanced) from the drop-down.
This should make things more readable.
