Hi, nice to be here!

I have a problem regarding the openMV IDE:

I’ve been using OpenMV for a while with no problems but today when I opened the OpenMV IDE it looked like this:

 ![Screenshot from 2023-04-21 07-41-10](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/openmv1/original/2X/0/0c385011d42a490642336296b4c37748cb74c7d4.png)

The resolution of the window is messed up and I can’t interact with the play button at the bottom properly.

Things I’ve tried:  
-Resize the windows by dragging from the top left corner.  
-Use fullscreen mode.  
-Ctrl+scroolwheel to resize the ide.(only works in the text editor)  
-Search in options for IDE resizing.  
-Redownloading the IDE enviroment.  
-Opening up existing projects.

My system specifications:  
[[Introduction - UDOO X86 II Docs](https://www.udoo.org/docs-x86II/Introduction/Introduction.html))  
Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (Focal I believe).  
System screen resolution 1290x970 ~

Things that may have caused this problem that I can think of:  
Closing the computer without closing the IDE first.  
Removing the power supply from the computer without closing IDE first.

Thank you for your help in advance.

Domenec.

Hi, please delete the “~./config/OpenMV IDE” settings folder on your desktop. This should reset the IDE.

Also, I’ll be upgrading the IDE very soon and fixing a bunch of issues that have been popping up starting in May.

Thank you , it worked!

Have a nice trip.
