Hello,
I've found a similar topic on this forum, but no solution was provided inside (link to old similar topic).
Short description of the issue:
Packet Tracer 7.2 is oversized: the icons are too big, it looks like the whole interface of the software is zoomed and nothing is aligned correctly.
Find attached screenshot examples
Configuration:
Lenovo T450S
CPU: Dual Core Intel Core i7-5600U
Ram: 20GB
OS: Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon
Screen resolution: 1920x1080(16:9)
Packet Tracer 7.2
---
Elaboration of the issue:
My last usage of Packet Tracer was back in 2009-2010, so back in that time I didn't had any of similar issues.
Presently after installing the Packet Tracer 7.2 on Linux Mint 19.1 (tried also 19 version - same issue) the whole interface of the software is zoomed in. It is definitely not the interface layout that could be considered for comfortable usage of the software. In addition the different windows of the soft is way bigger than the screen and it is impossible to resize them, for example: to view the exact version of Packet Tracer that is marked in the bottom of the window.
As mentioned above, I've already found a similar topic about the issue, but with no solution to it. As a temporary solution I could change the resolution to 1600x900 and restart the Packet Tracer what would re-aligne the whole layout correctly, but this is not the most comfortable solution for the moment.
I would appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this issue.
Thank you in advance!
