The Add Text and Edit Text icons have disappeared

Jon Lee
Jon Lee 1 month ago

Reproduction steps:

After opening the software, open 3Dx, then editing or adding text causes the alignment icon to disappear; as shown in the video.

It was verified that setting the DPI at any ratio was ineffective.

To pinpoint the problem, analysis revealed that the icon loading process is within the official script. Please investigate the cause.

    I have seen this when I first started using 25.1. The issue appears to be related to windows scaling and Allegro recognising this. When I first saw it my windows scaling was set to 150% recommended. I changed this to 100% and restarted Allegro and the icons were then visible. I then closed Allegro and changed the scaling back to 150% recommended and I could then see the icons so maybe wortth a try.
