Giant Font Menu in Secondary Monitor
Using an external/secondary monitor off of a Surface Pro 6. The Font Menu is so big it's unusable. Works fine on the main display, but gets like this on the second monitor.

once you start typing a font name the scroll wheel stops working.
several of the other menus don't scroll either. for example, the units dropdown in the create new document window.arrow keys still work.

Hi Nicholas,
the trick works fine, but the aspect of the panel seems odd anyway. Let's wait for the official fix.
Thank you! -

I fixed it. What you need to do is find the Illustrator icon (a shortcut to it is fine) and right click it, then go to Properties.
Find the Compatibility tab, and click on High DPI Settings.
Finally, check off the Override option on the bottom and set it to System. This will make it redraw the software whenever you drag it to a new display. I did this for every Adobe program. -

Having the same problem!
While typing a the name of the font I want to use, the cursor keeps on moving on different places between the letter, messing up completely with what I wanted to writ and when I am done writing it just gives me a very random font!
Very frustrating, especially considering that this costs me 70€ per month!
Please DO fix it, it costs valuable time!Kind regards,

Also, when I work on a Mac font's not available on Windows and cannot be obtained from TK e.g. "Phosphorus Inline". More productivity wasted.

Yes, your font menu does not wok. This "Submit a bug" like it's a cute ******* game is annoying. Cannot work with your broken menu's
