Hi Chris,

It seems that you are using a 4k display and Ranorex is not yet compatible with 4k displays. Please try to set your screen resolution to 1920x1080 and try if the button is still not there.

Hope that helps.

Hi,
I use two Screens but they are both on 1920x1200. If I only use one Screen, I have a same Problem. I think its began after I update Ranorex to Version 8.2.1
I changed the display resolution but this don't help

Hi Chris, Also ensure your DPI is set to 100% as this is usually the culprit of this issue, not so much the resolution.

Hi everyone,

I'm also getting the same issue, I tried changing the desktop scale settings from 100 - 150 and resolution from 1366 x 768 - 1920 x 1080 but no luck at all. I also tried with different Ranorex Studio versions and changing the VMS to 1920 x 1080 but still no luck. I've launched the incident with Ranorex support team for two to three weeks and no positive feedback yet. I tried using the work around by N612 and that did not work. Please can anyone help

The Desktop is on windows 10 Enterprise, the VPN is on windows server 2012 r2 standard (version 6.3.9600 Build 9600).

I've attached a snapshot displaying how the Setting--Plugins screen looks and how the elements are tracked with wrong position

Regards,
Isaac

Hi,

The distorted text and tracking rectangle offset in your screenshots, is caused by display scale set higher than 100%. Unfortunately, the only fix is to set the display scale back to 100% (at max 125%), which is, of course, not ideal for high-res displays. Check also the solution mentioned here:
