After switching back, and the problem with the button sizes returns, I make the 
following observations.


  1.  The text margins for the “H” button seem to be correct.
  2.  The remaining buttons in the column use the same button size as the “H” 
button.
  3.  Scaling those buttons on one of the longer button labels may resolve the 
problem for all resolutions.

I’m a retired programmer with 45 years of experience.  I’ve seen these types of 
problems many times.  Sometimes, the hard problems have easy solutions.  Other 
times you grab a big hammer…

All of them.  Most annoying is the Log popup which I have positioned for easy 
tapping (touch screen).

Which windows?

After a few more experiments, I’ve reverted this change.  The program no longer 
remembers where certain windows open on the screen, opening all windows in the 
center.  This is a bit more disruptive than the narrow buttons.

Thank you.  That does change a few things, and some of the text seems a bit 
less sharp, but it does fix the problem and I like the overall effect better.  
I very much appreciate your response.

Try this to replace the qt.conf in your bin directory



[Paths]

Plugins = ../plugins



[Platforms]

WindowsArguments = dpiawareness=0

Not sure what’s happening here, but my guess would be that the screen 
resolution may be off, but I was seeing this on other computers as well.

My computer is a Microsoft Surfacebook 2, with a screen resolution of 3240 x 
2160.  I was also seeing the same thing on my other computer with a 32” ultra 
widescreen resolution of 2560 x 1080.  I’m also seeing this on v2.6.1 and 
v2.7.0-rc2.  Is there a setting I need to adjust, or is this something that 
requires a program change to fix?

A long standing defect that I gave up on getting the devs to correct.

All other UI controls inducing the Tx1-6 buttons are scaled correctly except 
these buttons!

Here's mine, like you replicated across multiple devices.
