Lower Radio Menu Entries Not Visible/Cutoff After Latest OB (2.5.5)

[Fubarbrickdust]

As per the title.

 

After the latest open beta update (2.5.5) the lower sections of a fully populated radio menu gets cutoff and truncated in VR.

 

This happens regardless of the new font size setting used - Even at 1x the lower entries get cutoff, the issue gets worse the higher size setting used.

 

Seems like the viewport 'box' size allocated to the radio menu isn't extending low enough or towards the right enough, and doesn't account for any text entries that are longer and may extend further than that of the top layer radio menu.

 

To test: Open up any layer that may be well populated with entries that are more than one word (eg, ATC sub menu with more than 6/7 airfields available).

 

Using Rift S if it makes any difference.

 

Cheers,

Brick.

I confirmed this as well. (HTC VIVE)

 

This makes multiplayer nearly unplayable. I cannot remember all of what was below the cutoff

Please fix soon!

Hey guys i have found the fix for our Issue.

I use odyssey Plus but my issue is the same as yours.

Use script editor such as Notepad++ to edit these files. Don't use regular notepad!

 

To fix it:

go to main dcs directory\Scripts\Ui\RadioCommandDialogPanel\CommandDialogsPanel.lua

Line 184 (local height = 400 * fontScale) controlls the size of the window.

Myself i changed it to 700 (local height = 700 * fontScale)

 

This file will most likely revert to original form with each patch, so i advise to make a mod.

Good man :thumbup:

 

I was digging around in the commandmenu.lua but only found tweaks for the menu width and font size.

 

Thanks for sharing. I feel another mod making it's way to OvGME. Hopefully ED will fix the issue before too long.

Nice work. Thanks.:thumbup:

Nice, I'm going to try that right now. Thanks !

ED, follow this nice gentleman's lead, and patch this bug, please.

Bravo!

 

This should be made configurable as well in the DCS system menu, along with text size being able to go below 1 into .9, .8, etc.

Really useful!

Now, it would be good to find where the font size for things like trainer instructions, menus, etc. until we get a font scaling factor of less than 1 from ED for VR.
