(UI QUESTION) Eyedropper not working when DPI Scaling isn't used

Hello!

So I don't use DPI scaling because it makes the Vegas interface super tiny and hard to see.

However, when I have "Use High DPI Scaling (where available)" unchecked, this messes with the eyedropper tool. The eyedropper tool does not pick the colour I select, and usually chooses a light shade of grey instead (I was eyedropping a "Solid Colour" from "Media Generators").

When I check that DPI Scaling box again, the eyedropper tool works as normal.

 

So is there any way I can keep DPI Scaling unchecked, while also having a functioning eyedropper tool? Or are there any other ways I can either make the interface larger, or use some other form of eyedropper?

 

Thanks!

You haven't said what your screen resolution is set at, but it's perfectly acceptable to me to edit (preview) at HD resolutions, even if your monitor is UHD.

I unchecked DPI Scaling and was able to use the color picker in Vegas Titles & Text to change the color of the text.
