Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I wasn't working much on TVP on Windows recently, so I did not notice this before: the top menu bar on my Cintiq is humongous! it takes too much space - it might be something trivial, but I cannot find how to fix it (see screenshot).
for clarity - I am using 2 displays with very different resolutions - one is the Cintiq (this is the screenshot) and another Dell 4K. If I put TVP in Full resolution, it takes both displays, which is also not a solution...
Any fix for that? (Windows 10)

Looks like the Display settings may need an adjustment. Check to see it is set to the recommended size (or lower) and not something extremely large. To get my top bar to look like as big as yours, I'd have to set it to 300%.

**TVPaint won't respond to this change in scaling until you close and reopen it.

unfortunately changing the size % on any of the displays did nothing - the bar is still same huge size...

I finally fixed it by going into compatibility setting for TVPaint and changing High DPI scaling override to "System (enhanced)" (see screenshot):

Unfortunately this didn't fix the issue. Now my Wacom pen pointer doesn't match the location anymore! so I had to go back to the huge top bar... frustrating and so weird...
I tried all possible high DPI settings in Windows - no luck. I'm starting to suspect Wacom driver, but not sure...

Ok, after downgrading the Wacom driver to 6.3.38-2 and turning on the High DPI scaling override with "System (enhanced)", it now finally works as expected. Also the Wacom pen acts normal. My mistake was upgrading the Wacom driver, forgetting that the new drivers have irreversible problems that impact any work with TVPaint. Thus - just to emphasize again - Wacom Driver 6.3.38.2 is officially the last properly working driver (might not be supported by newer tablets by the way...)

I think I am going a bit nuts. After doing some troubleshooting and recording videos to send to Wacom and here, I had to reinstall their drivers a few times again, I am again getting the same problem, no matter what driver I use. In the end I came to a conclusion that it's the Sub Pixel that causes most of the trouble. If I turn Sub-Pixel on, then nothing works, if I turn it off, everything works. However I will create a separate thread about this specifically, because this question is more about the huge menu bar, not Wacom...
