Hi,

Below is a screenshot of my userform with userform properties. Below that is another screenshot of the same thing except I have changed HEIGHT in the properties window to *100*.

As you can see, height 100 magically changes itself to 80.4. If I then try typing 100 again...

The width of the userform shrinks... and it keeps shrinking the more times I attempt to change 80.4 to 100

Why can't I set the values of my userform? Why do they keep changing themselves? Why does changing height change width repeatedly??

Thanks

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
What happens if you click and drag the resize handles?

They resize, but I can't specify values, and they eventually shrink (after a wb open close or two) to some random size (annoyingly small) - so thats not much use either

I wasn't suggesting it as a resolution (though sometimes things like that can cure temporary gremlins), I just wanted to know if it would allow you to resize without constraint.

It's not a problem I have heard of before - how long has it been going on, and is it only that one workbook?

I've tried two different workbooks and its persistent across both so far - very annoying/bizarre.

I'm wondering if there's some sort of scaling issue on second screens at different resolutions to primary screens?

Not tested the theory out yet

I have monitors with different resolutions and haven't encountered it, but anything is possible.

Which version and build of 365 are you on?
