Beginners' Questions Inkscape look smaller

    Hello all,

    I've been using Inkscape for quite a few years now and have now come across something I have never encountered before.

    When I opened the program just now I noticed that I had to change the scale in order to see the drawing I am working on in the size that Iย prefer. Then I noticed that all the toolbars and icons were a lot smaller than ususal, the whole program opened in a different scale than ususal.

    I have not changed anything in Inkscape itself, installed new programs, installed new hardware or whatever.

    Can anyone tell me what happened and how I can get my favourite drawing program to look as usual instead of like its 10 metres away?

    Thanks in advance,

    Paul

    Thanks for the tip mendy but I had already tried adjusting settings there. It didn't help.

    Just now I opened Inkscape again and it was back to its normal resolution. I think it was my computer that did something odd and it hadย nothing to do with Inkscape.

    Problem solved!
