preview window shows in smaller size

[Antois]

Hello. I have reset VideoStudio because I could not change the layout to standard anymore.

After restarting the program the image in the preview window was very small like a smartphone. I could not find a way to get the normal size back. There's nothing in the settings to change the size of the preview window. However, suddenly I got the normal size back, I don't know how. Has anyone an idea why I got such a small preview window and is there a way to bring it back to it's standard size?

Is your preview screen like what you see in my attached screenshot? If so, then go to the icon where the red arrow is pointing and select 16:9 and that should give you back your full screen.

Yes, it was like you show it. Thank you!
There was another problem after the reset which I will mention in a new topic.

I noticed now that the small preview window that suddenly occured had a different cause than you mentioned. The layout settings were changed from standard to customized. I don't know why. There were no buttons anymore below the preview window (also no aspect ratio button) and the image in the window was very small. By changing the layout to standard everything was normal again.

Hi
If the UI layout settings have been changed, we can revert back to the default layout by pressing Keyboard F7
Preview Window
We can zoom the view by using our mouse wheel, this will reduce the size of the frame but does not affect the video, just the view on the screen.
So float the mouse over the screen moving the mouse wheel to change the size to your liking.

Thank you! Zooming the view is new for me. I knew the F7.
