We are at the consultant training workshop in French-speaking Africa. Someone here has a Paratext screen in which the main menu for Paratext and the menus for each project flop over the right-hand side of the screen. We can't make the right-hand column visible. Any ideas of how to reduce the size of the menu? Even if we put Pxt in a reduced screen size, the menus are still too long and we can't click on the menu items in the right-hand menu column.

What screen resolution are they using? Can you update your post with a screenshot of the problem?

I tried to get a screen shot, but it didn’t actually capture the menu. frown But it was just as described: the right-most portion of the menu (Help) was off the right side of the screen.

I checked the screen resolution and it was 1920x1080 BUT the scale was set to 175%. When I set it to 150%, we could again see most of the menu, and we ended up leaving the scale on his screen as 125%, where he can see the entire menu.

Shouldn’t Paratext do something more sensible in this situation? Could it have a horizontal scroll bar on the menu?
