Taskbar indicator UI incorrect size on launch. #20

Open logan2k opened 3 years ago

logan2k commented 3 years ago

When login to a Windows user, the UI of the indicator in taskbar is too short. A simple fix is to change Windows system display scaling to any new value, but user need to do it every login. There are 2 pictures comparing a normal UI and a broken one. bug normal

I also have this once in a while, mostly i resize my taskbar and it will be ok again. But maybe there is a way to prevent this.

It happens every time to me.

Could you also add a screenshot of the font settings dialog?

Do you have set any settings like font scaling?

Added. Scale is at 125%.

I see that SystemWatcherControl_Resize is not yet implemented, it might be a solution for this.

I will try to take a look at this problem this week, sorry for the delay.

I found a workaround: set custom scaling in Windows setting, as the 2 screenshots shows: 1 2 You can enter any value, even the same as the current buggy one. As long as it's set as "custom scaling", the bug will not shows. Actually it will show the buggy layout for a second when you just login, but soon it will change to the correct one. My guess is by setting a "custom scaling", Windows do some additional steps after login.

I have the same bug. There is some space beneath the graph after every login

Found the culprit, this should be fixed on next release.
