Weird issues with game engines

So I decided to look at my engines (LIFE and AoS) in Win 10. Initially they didn't work, the display components were all sized wrong and in a mess it was just awful to look at. :( I then tried changing the scalings of everything from 125 to 100, no change. Then I scaled down the resolution - and they looked rather better. I then scaled up the resolution again and they still look fine and I'm really confused. Might try rebooting to see if that resets them to not-working again...

I guess windows 10 and tkinter don't work together fully, but a quick google was unproductive.

Definitely sounds like an issue with TKInter not receiving the correct display information from Windows 10... which wouldn't be the first time Win10 has screwed up something like that, in my personal experience :P

Yeah - haven't gotten round to seeing if rebooting makes a difference, just taken the opportunity of things being not-messed-up to do some programming :P Will update further if more updates occur!

UPDATE: So basically conclusion is that this happens only on the top resolution on my screen - setting the resolution temporarily down then up again fixes the issue. Most odd.  ???

It's weird that it gets the correct information after changing the res, but not straight away. Have you tried a poke about in Stack Overflow? Someone might've already sorted it :D
