Hi there.
Just starting to get used to vMix during the 60 day trial.
I have the following setup:
-vMix version:17.0.0.103
-windows version: win10 pro/64bit (16GB RAM)
-graphics card: GTX960 with all displays set to 1920x1080/60
-CPU: i5-6500 (3.2ghz)
As I understand it, I should be able to move the horizontal bar between the inputs and preview/program boxes so I can see more inputs (at the expense of shrinking preview/program). But I click and try and drag it, and nothing happens... it just stays where it is.
Is there some reason I would not be able to adjust it?
Thanks
Jeff

Works here - in increments of the height of inputs.
What is your screen resolution?

Works fine here too, only time I could not do it was if I minimized the vMix window to the smallest possible size.

@ jeregan
Please note that there are only 2 or 3 'preset' sizes for the Preview/Program screens (depending on your chosen 'Input' size, Settings-> Display-> Input Size).
You have to click and "drag" the separator line invisibly to that 'preset' location, it is not scalable to a "custom" size of your liking (the location should highlight as you drag near it).

So then am I to presume that if my sources are set to 1920x1080 and my monitor is 1920x1080, that no other preset than the default one is available? I tried dragging it up and down, and it shows the drag symbol, but then doesn't move to any other preset. Thanks Jeff IceStream wrote:@ jeregan

@ jeregan
It's not the 'Resolution' size of your sources or monitor, it's the size of the "Input" screens you choose for your GUI display.
(Settings -> Display -> Input Size) which range from smallest (208x156) to largest (400x300)
The line itself wont move. nothing happens until you release the mouse button on or near the preset location as you drag (it should 'highlight' as you cross it).
Hope that helps some, if none of that happens then perhaps you have a glitch somewhere that is preventing the behaviour.

Hmmm... I have tried various Input Sizes. But either I am doing something wrong (hence, newbie), or it is not working. I don't see any highlight as I move the mouse with either left click or right click pressed down. IceStream wrote:@ jeregan

Here is an update... I figured it out (with the help of vMix support... thanks guys!)... On each monitor, I had to ensure that the line for each monitor in display settings that says "Change the size of text, apps, and other items" is at 100%. Some how one of them got changed... I didn't do it and it is a new install of Windows 10 (cough), so I will blame it on Microsquish. Thanks for the help Jeff jeregan wrote:Hmmm... I have tried various Input Sizes.
