I changed some of the toolbars around in 3.2.5 (win 11) and now they won’t reset to original size.

Reset toolbars does not do it either.

How did you do that anyway? :wink:

You can delete audacity.cfg held in the C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\audacity directory (shortcut: “%appdata%\audacity” (I usually just rename the file to audacity-old.cfg).

Just renamed audacity.cfg file and it still has no effect.

8

Now I have uninstalled Audacity, restarted pc and installed it again. Still no change.!

So I am at a loss. Perhaps @LWinterberg may have some thoughts.

Did you change something with the HiDPI settings in Windows?

11

No. Within Audacity all I did was move some of the toolbars around. Later I tried to revert to the original layout and noticed the two buttons were different sizes.

Have checked and text size was 134%. Reduced it to 110% and that fixed it. Thank you.

Yeah, these buttons are very sensitive to HiDPI and font scaling and misbehave easily. Setting scaling options to 100% where possible or close to it generally fixes things.

This is technically a bug, but then, the entirety of HiDPI is not very well supported at all. This won’t get fixed in the current UI framework, and won’t be a problem in the one we’re moving towards for Audacity 4.
