Metadata Filter Window Display Issue

[moviemaker445]

When I open the Metadata Search panel and select Tag Groups, this is what I see. Can you please tell me how to fix this to show the full line of each Tag Group?

Maybe related to https://www.photools.com/release-notes/?productId=542#01983 (Text Scaling)?
Which screen resolution and display scaling do you use?
Do you use a Windows text scaling > 1?

I've gave this a quick test at display scaling between 100% and 300%, and it always looked OK.

I've found the reason. This did not depend on the DPI scaling, but on text scaling.
When the text scaling was > 115%, the Windows routines did no longer return the correct "height".
I've fixed this, along with some other issues in the Filter Panel for computers with text scaling > 100%.

Glad that I'm not the only one with this issue, I reported here:

Mario, an idea, when you will release the fix?

You did not answer my question about your DPI scaling and text scaling (Make text bigger).
I have hence no idea what caused this or if my enhancements for the Filter Panel will work on your system.

The typical release cycle for IMatch is 6 to 8 weeks. The last IMatch update (2023.1.22) was shipped last Thursday.

You can go to Edit > Preferences > Application and search for text.
Disable Apply Windows text scaling settings and see if this improves things. Requires IMatch restart.

As in my other post, dpi scaling is set to 250% (recommend system setting). Changing the text scaling (>100%) and/or disable Apply Windows text scaling settings makes no difference. Still see the same as user moviemaker445

Let's wait until the next IMatch release is out.
Let me know if this still happens. Until then, I'll close this ticket as fixed.
