Quartus Prime desktop window

I have a laptop with 1366x768 display. Linux Centos7.

Quartus 18.1 running fine but the "Assignment" "Settings" window is too tall and I cannot move it to get to the 'Apply' or 'ok" at the bottom.

The system requirements say 1024x768 or better.

Is there a way to change this particular window size?

    Hi Kim,


    Could you provide any snapshot for that? You can enlarge window size by invoke xrandr -s <value>

    (value: 1,2,3,4 etc) in terminat.

      That just made it worse.

      xrandr show just 1366x768 as the max.

      My screen resolution is max'd out at 1366x768.

      I need to change what Quartus thinks is the default screen resolution.

      If I can't move it up or scroll down to the 'apply' box it thinks my screen is taller than it is.

      Again , is there an environment variable that Quartus can read to get it right.

      also ,as I said before , if the minimum screen resolution for this software is 1024x768 it should work. I have xranr to 1024x768 and that shows the window even taller than it was before.

    Hi Kim,


    Here is my findings:


    Below is my resolution when I invoke xrandr command. I changed to size 0 ( 1024 x 768) as we discussed last week which is the lowest requirement resolution for Quartus and I can reproduce the issue. The issue resolved ONLY when I changed other than that. I can see "apply" and "ok" button. Since for you is not working out, my suggestion is to try external monitor which has higher screen size and resolution as a workaround. Let me know any update from you. I am sorry for the inconvenience caused.
