It really is Ziggy. I've logged this as a bug and hopefully we can find a solution to this problem. Congrats on figuring it out ]]> Mon, 10 Dec 2012 11:19:06 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from fman00 To fix, go to control panel then personalization then display. Change the size back to smaller -100% (default) then apply. Open muvizu and hopefully you will get full screen loveliness.]]> Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:33:57 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from fazz68 ziggy72 wrote:
For Fazz68 and anyone else who doesn't have telescopes for eyes (really Microsoft, what are you thinking?!) you'll have to adjust the font sizes for the system yourself - here's a quick 'how to' :

In your Display settings (or Personalised settings for Win7) you need to go to Windows Colour and then, in the Item drop down box, select Icon. Change the font size here and you change them for the desktop icons as you'd expect, but this also changes the size of the fonts in Windows Explorer across the system.

The other important one is Menu, which dictates the size of the fonts on the Start Menu and the Menu bars. Finally, Message Box's font size should be increased too.

For readability, I like Verdana as my default font (size 17 works well).

Hope this helps - these HD screens are great and all, but they don't half scale stuff down, and the interfaces of programs don't usually let you scale much back up.


Brilliant !!! cheers mate, i can see again i usually dont venture into the computer settings because im not that computer savy and im afraid i'll mess something up. thanks again.... full screen and readable text..... brilliant !]]> Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:20:20 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from ziggy72

Nope, don't use automatic updates for anything, so nothing Windows related. The only thing that changed was my monitor - from an older CRT monitor to a LED monitor (widescreen). But it worked with the new monitor for the first day, no problems. I tested it all, to make sure it was all okay. Next day, I load up Muvizu, and it's messed up. Can't think of anything else to try.

So, I tried updating the video card drivers, using a different output from the card, adjusting the scaling options, the 3D options, etc. Nothing.

So, my Muvi making days are effectively over because I can't work in a little window, and I have no idea how to fix it, or what caused it. Any ideas would be welcome.]]> Tue, 04 Dec 2012 21:57:30 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from EEFilmz ziggy72 wrote:

I do have a new monitor, and have ran Muvizu on it and my TV in dual screen mode and all was well. Can't use this though.

I didn't mean drag the corners of the render area, I meant of the main window. The borders of the application should have the usual windows re-size controls - the render area has no controls for resizing, but should automatically get resized with the application.

Regards the sitting / standing thing - if you have recorded some animation with sitting, standing and walking - but you reposition the character (when sitting say) then rest of the movement will be changed with it. You should see pink dots on the floor repositioning as you move the character around though to let you know what the new path will be. I'm not sure if that's what you're describing though...]]> Mon, 26 Mar 2012 14:28:35 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from EEFilmz Mon, 26 Mar 2012 12:43:09 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from mcmillan-ra
It looks like the bit that does the rendering is not informed that the window size has changed.]]> Mon, 26 Mar 2012 09:56:05 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from Valero Mon, 26 Mar 2012 01:15:44 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from EEFilmz Valero wrote:

Thanks Valero for the response, mine is like that except mine has even less width, to give you an idea, you could place 2 "cameras" boxes side by side next too the viewable area right where yours is placed. - EEF]]> Sun, 25 Mar 2012 21:24:57 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from Valero ]]> Sun, 25 Mar 2012 20:48:03 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1650-scene-area-doesnt-fill-muvizizu-window-maxed.aspx Message from EEFilmz Sat, 24 Mar 2012 19:51:05 GMT
