Font scaling breaks auto-complete popup placement [message #48965]

I am on Windows 10, and with the Display font scaling set to 140 % (this is a 13" at 1920x1080), the autocomplete popup does not place correctly. See the attached screenshot.

Setting the scaling to 100 % fixes the issue, so does scroll the line being autocompleted further down the screen.

I've tried both the latest release as well as a version I built manually from svn11441 - both show the problem.

Hello,

I added it to our redmine bug track - https://www.ultimatepp.org/redmine/issues/1811. In my opinion the problem you reported is important, however I think we can fix it around 2018.1 release not sooner.

Sincerely,
Klugier

Should be now fixed.

That said: Placing assist popup to top instead of bottom is intended behaviour (when the regular size does not fit bottom). However, going out of screen was a bug.

Maybe above logic is not right. I am ok finetuning this (e.g. always popup bottom, just reduce the size) - but undecided what is best here.

It appears to work like a charm so far. Thanks a lot for the quick fix Smile

Hi, there appears to be a similar issue with the "new package file" dropdown menu. See the screenshot. This one is far less critical, but I thought I'd mention in anyways. See the screenshot. The top edge is the top of my screen with the dialog's default placement.

The workaround is to the move the dialog a bit down. Moving the dialog up also works, as the menu then drop down instead of up.
