Please help with hgectic rescaling of Pro Q4

Hi guys,

I don't know what happened (possibly updating macOS to 15.4.1?), but as of late every time I open a Pro-Q4 window it randomly opens on a different screen (I use 4 displays, one of which is a 5k, one 2k and 2 FHD), but more importantly, when I drag it on a different screen, it changes size (and I think scaling) and does so every time that I consecutively do it, with varying results.

It will start, say, on the 5k screen, with regular size (like a 4th of the screen) but always with tiny, tiny interface and fonts, so small that I can't even click on the rescaling lower right button. If I drag it to the 2k screen, it will blow up and auto-resize to fit the entire screen vertically and horizontally it will exceed the screen.

I resize and try to pull it back on the 5k, it will go again to the tiny font/interface size and be, of course, an even smaller window size.

If I drag on one of the FHD screens it will again do the full blow up and exceeding margins.

It is driving me crazy and makes working with it almost impossible, since I have it on pretty much every track, and every instance will do this dance, starting on a different place, screen and size.

Is there a solution to this, do you think? Some preferences file that I can adjust, or maybe it's a new macOS buig?


Thank you so much,

Al the best,

S.

Looks like if I put the main monitor, the 5k, in low resolution, 3440x1440 but NOT retina, the plugin behaves properly on all screens. I can put it in 100 scaling and behaves as it should when moving it on all the screens.

As soon as I put the main monitor in retina, the dance that I described above ensues, so it seems like the plugin stopped remembering scaling/resolution settings for the several screens?

Correctly uninstalling all the hidden files and reinstalling solved it. Thank you!
