Size of FSUIPC box

[swedtrans]

I have just installed FSUIPC. When I open it the box appears but the contents are too big for the size of the box. What to do? I can barely read half of what's in the box, and the box can't be reshaped.

I have XP Pro.

You need to post this in Peter Dowson's support Forum - it is lower down in the forum list

By "the box" I assume you mean the FSUIPC options dialogue, via the Modules-FSUIPC menu item?

That is a standard Windows dialogue, handled entirely by standard Windows libraries, and the sizes are not set by my programming but by Windows.

The only times I've known it to go wrong in the way you describe is when the two standard libraries needed for dialogues do not match. Mostly this seems to be due to drivers (usually video drivers) installing an older or incompatible version of COMCTL32.DLL. You will need to see if you can re-install the correct Windows version of that standard library.

If installing more up to date (WinXP) video drivers doesn't accomplish this, then perhaps Katy Pluta over in the FS2004 Forum may be able to help. She is very knowledgeable about Windows and will undoubtedly be able to tell you how to proceed.
