I have Delphi 10.2.1 on window 7 NO PROBLEMS.
I had to install same Delphi on window 10.
Now my PROJECT option form is too big and i cannot
resize vertically . The width can change.
My OK button is hidden under the window tool bar
and the top is hidden although i can after working hard
catch it.
ANY FIX ???

    You mean, besides setting the resolution to 100%?

    Uwe Raabe I tried down grade the resolutions from 1366x768.
    It did not help.
    the resolution is 100%. You cannot go to lower resolution.
    is 1366x768 High DPI?
    The page OK hide under the task bar.

    After reading all the comments on above link i am afraid to do
    or download the advice.

    If your system is already set to 100% that should be sufficient. Can you provide a screenshot of the problem?

    Display Settings, Scale and Layout needs to be set to 100% (Recommended), any other scaling can cause this problem.

    The "Project Options" dialog has a minimum height of 756 pixel (in Constraints.MinHeight). If your screen vertical resolution has only 768 pixel (or 960 pixel at 125% scaling), some parts of that dialog are hidden. I do not know where this MinHeight comes from. If I change this value to 500 during debugging a 2nd IDE instance, it is ignored.

    Achim KalwaAndy Vines I wish i understand.
    My resolution is 100%.
    I cannot go to any bigger resolution since my computer max
    is 1366x768 so what you are saying buy another computer?
    Some thing is wrong by definition. if i cannot resize my option screen.
    Thanks in any case.
    Achim Kalwa from your answer i see my problem.
    Never head such a problem. I am with Delphi since number 1.
    I which those Delphi people
    Read my problem and fix that so it is resizeble.

    I don't have 10.2.1 installed, but on 10.2.2 the dialog can be reduced to 635x472. The settings are stored in the registry under DelphiOptionsDlg.

    Uwe Raabe The settings are stored in the registry, Yes. But that does not mean you can overcome the MinHeight restriction. I've changed "Height" to 500 (decimal), but the "Project Options" dialog still opens with a height of 756 pixel. Closing the dialog writes 756 back to "Height" (Delphi 10.1 Upd. 2).

    Achim Kalwa As I said, I tested with Delphi 10.2.2. Although I can also see the Height restrictions in 10.1 Upd 2. The OP asked for 10.2.1, but I cannot speak for that here.

    Not sure if this helps, but with the options form open, press Ctrl-Space followed by M. This allows you to move the form with the cursor keys. Press the Up / Down buttons to get a top/bottom visible and then press Enter. This will then allow you to drag the vertical size of the window to suit - hopefully the size remains constant when you re-open

    Jason Smart I tried already your solution as a starting point
    It dose NOT resize vertically. That is the main issue .

    If you need to work on a 768 pixel height I’d consider setting setting scaling to 75% and put some effort into obtaining a better screen. The effort of that WILL pay off. Just look at all the time that is wasted in this thread.

    Low resolution screens must die, and we as developers have a responsibility to help kill them by not supporting them. Apparently Embarcadero did their job. Now you do yours. ;-)

    Wouter van Nifterick The screen is a portable computer. I tried to lower the size it dose not allow .

    Can't you resize your Options window? I can (D10.2.2) but I don't know if it is an original feature or introduced by a 3rd part IDE enhancer, like GExperts.

    Can you upgrade to 10.2.2? Seems it works with that one.

    Uwe Raabe As most of us ,programming is our work , we know why.
    No one is perfect and those huge project tend to have bugs that never end. So make the best of what there is.
    This is why i am still with 7 ,with some projects, as it is fairly stable and simple enough to operate.
    No need for all those goodies.
