The list does not line up. The names & amounts over run each other making the reading hard.

How would you expand the blocks for easier reading.

    Hello @x-bear,

    Thank you for letting us know you're encountering this problem. To confirm, are you on the Bills & Income tab, using the Stack View?

    Do you have any display issues using the other view options?

    What is your display resolution? Are you using a High Resolution monitor?

    I look forward to your reply!

    I am in stack view. Monitor is in 2560 x 1080 resolution. This does not help. Stays the same as in orginal post

    If you haven't rebooted Windows since the installation of the latest Quicken update, please do that first and try Quicken again.


    Font size problems? Display issues? (Windows)
    Please try the following:
    - Close Quicken !!! (This process won't work while Quicken is running!)
    - Check the Compatibility tab settings in your Quicken Desktop program icon:
    - In the Windows Start Menu right-click the Quicken icon. Select "Open File Location". This brings up a Windows File Explorer window. Right-click the highlighted Quicken shortcut line item.
    or
    - Go to the traditional Windows Desktop and right-click the Quicken program icon.
    or
    - Use Windows File Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Quicken\ and right-click qw.exe
    - Now click Properties.
    - Select the Compatibility tab.
    - Uncheck all settings.
    - Windows 7, 8.1: Check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings".
    - Windows 10, 11: Click "Change high DPI settings". Check "Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by:" and select "Application" (also try the other available options repeating the entire procedure!). Click OK.

    Users with high resolution monitors, 3840x2160 with 225% scaling, try "System (Enhanced)"

    -Be sure to uncheck the "Run this program in compatibility mode for [older Windows version]" setting.
    -Click the "Change settings for all users" button.
    -Click Apply and exit.
    -Reboot Windows.
    -Now start Quicken and see if that makes a difference.


    Some additional tuning suggestions:

    Try this workaround for 4k monitors
    https://www.quicken.com/support/work-around-display-issues-high-resolution-monitors

    System requirements: 1024x768 or higher screen resolution, 1280x1024 minimum for Large Fonts settings

    Unless absolutely required, try not to use "View / Use large fonts"

    Try setting the bank account registers to use a different font style or size: go to Edit / Preferences / Register, click the Fonts button and try different fonts.

    Try adjusting the bank account registers' row height: go to Edit / Preferences / Register, choose among the available Row Height choices: Compact, Comfortable or Standard

    If all else fails, try changing Windows Control Panel / Display options for "Make text and other items … smaller or larger" to use a different scaling level, but try not to exceed 125%

    Try using the Windows Magnifier. Press the Windows logo key and the = key to open Magnifier. Customize Magnifier to increment Zoom in 25% intervals.
