Windows 10 and screwed-up/near unreadable Expediton GUI menus
Sorry if this has been discussed before but could not find any relevant topics. I will soon be doing navigation on a SC50 for the 2016 PacCup. The boat's computer has windows 10 installed and Expediton (10.4.5) does not seem to be happy with this. All the menus seem really screwed up with the text almost impossible to read. It does not help that a lot of the Expeditiion windows/sub windows are not resizable in anyway. It really makes it near impossible to properly use Expedition. For example, selecting sources in number boxes is a crapshoot as the text is not readable, etc. The box has a minimal windows install but all other "normal" windows apps such as office, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Fiefox, etc. do not seem to have the same issues with their GUI interface that Expedition has. Does anybody have any tips on how to fix this? No amount of text resizing and other attempts have made Expedition menus and windows any more useable...

Sorry for the delay in responding.
We had similar issues, which were unique to the Lenovo Yoga Pros we were using. I was finally able to find a good setup by playing with the resolution, "make text larger or smaller", and the overall font sizes. It took trial and effort, but did eventually come around.
Also, keep in mind the the magnifying glass on the number boxes allow you to increase the size of the fonts in the number boxes. One of those little things you don't think about....

It could also be worth closing Exp, running Expedition System restore and deleting the display states.
