Hi,


OK, this is a DPI scaling issue. Your monitor resolution might be too high.


Use the following steps:

  1. Right-click on the Quartus shortcut icon on your desktop.
  2. Go to Properties->Compatibility.
  3. Click on "Change high DPI settings".
  4. Tick "Override high DPI scaling behavior".
  5. Then under "Scaling performed by:", select "System".
  6. Then restart Quartus and it should be scaled properly.


As a result the resolution will be lower. But I think if you play around with the different options from step 5 you can find one that works for you perfectly both resolution and scaling wise.


I hope this helps!
