Brief description of the issue:

When starting the sim, all In Game Panels shows a very tiny font, which will be set to the correct size as soon the panel window is resized, even by a very small amount.

PC specs and/or peripheral set up if relevant:

I’m using a 32:9 monitor at 5120x1440 resolution, that might be relevant, because lots of games seem to be confused in font sizes with this resolution. However, this problem never happened before SU9

Same problem here. Using a 1920 x 1080 display on an Nvidia GTX1660.

What makes this worse is that it goes back to being unusably small after a sim restart. 4K desktop resolution.

At least mine seems to have stayted fixed on restarting the sim.

I can confirm this.

To reproduce, load MSFS then assure it’s in window mode. Resize the window.
Now open one of the default toolbar item(s) (ATC, Fuel, Flight Assistant)

The opened window will be:

small-font
small-font1920×919 92.4 KB

smaller-fonts
smaller-fonts1920×980 88.9 KB

Resizing either that window or the main MSFS window will restore the font size.

Wonder why we are experiencing the bug differently? I’ve exited sim both via alt-F4 and from the main menu and in both cases the windows are reset to using tiny fonts after a restart. Annoying!

Problem came back briefly yesterday and then disappeared???

I think the problem happens only after resizing the main flight sim window. If you always run in full screen, you might not notice it until you resize it again.
