Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
Hi,
my Problem is, that if i start minetest and want to klick on a server to join, i always need to click the server under it, but this happens with every button, so im klicking on a button and it does not react, it only reacts if i klick a bit under the button ... and also the text is looking very strange ... as if you wrote something and wrote the same over it ... and ingame i have the problem, that i dont see half of the chat and also the lower part of the HUD is cut off
I need help ... i reinstalled minetest over 15 times ... i tried the 0.4.16, the 0.4.15, the 0.4.13 ... always the same problem ... but i have this problem only with minetest
sorry for bad grammar

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
Whereas you described the problem very clearly, could you please also provide your OS + version and input method (mouse, touchpad, pen-pointer-thingy) ?
Look, I programmed a bug for you. >> Mod Search Engine << - Mods by Krock - DuckDuckGo mod search bang: !mtmod <keyword here>

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
Have you tried playing full screen (no window border frame)?
these are what I use in the config file for no border:
fullscreen = true
screen_H =709
screen_W = 1260
Can you still autohide the taskbar in Windows?
maybe see if that helps

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
Cool.
Might also check that your taskbar isn't set to always be on top
It used to be under taskbar properties, IDK about Win10 tho.

Simply adjust the screen_H and screen_W to your resolution. For me its: screen_H 900 and screen_W 1600.

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
EDIT: I think your aspect ratios are what's messing you guys up.
The default window size is 1024x600.
you need to adjust your config to reflect this,
if you go "max window" size it's gonna be outta wack
and that's probably the issue.
@kingoscargames try this:
I adjusted the height so it doesn't cover the taskbar just in case.
you will probably have to tweak it depending on window frame size.

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
The problem is, in general, that the official Minetest builds are not (correctly) manifested. The MinGW builds cant be manifested, and the x32 MSVC build was build with a old Visual Studio Version that did probably not know how to handle manifests.
Without that manifest, Minetest simply does not support HIGH DPI Monitors.
But there is a simple solution:

Apart from the missing Manifest, there is a simple solution: right click the minetest.exe -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Check "Overwrite high DPI behavior" -> Select "Application" *

Re: Text in Minetest is placed wrong ...
This works for me:
(I wish i didnt have to go fullscreen to make it work though. :( )
Code: Select all
fullscreen = true
screenW = 1280
screenH = 680
