Hi,

I am a Mac user and have been for a very long time.  I don't own any Windows machines.  So I am not a Windows expert.

I recently installed Windows 10 (using BootCamp) on my Mac so I can run 1 programs that is only available for Windows and I need it for work.

I installed the ISY Admin Console and it placed an icon on my desktop.  The problem is that when I launch the console, the text is tiny and basically unusable.  I have a high DPI Apple display.  Everything else e.g. the program I needed, firefox, etc, looks fine.  It's just the admin console that seems to have the problem.

Any ideas how to fix?

I can always continue to just use the console on the Mac side so this is not a huge deal but would be nice to get sorted out.

Thanks.

In the admin console pull down the File menu and select Themes, and then Font size. Select a font size  and then close and reopen the admin console

Right-click the icon, I forget which tab, but find ‘Compatibility mode’ and change it to ‘Windows XP’.

The issue is your screen is a HDPI screen, and Java does not play well with newer APIs that HDPI exposes. This seems to work around the issue for most people.

Here's the ISY Wiki link for correcting the font issue
