I have a weird problem where some of the information on my screens gets cut off on some computers and not on others? See screenshot below. The top display is from one computer and is cutting off most of the values and the bottom one is from my computer showing everything.

I've tried different scaling options but i can't seem to find the right combination to fix my problem.

My first guess would be the scaling setting of Windows. My next guess is the font you used does not exist on the target machine, therefore Windows substituted a font that is wider.

You should check the settings of the computer that shows it properly, like resolution/text size/font.

Then try applying the same settings on other computers.

If these computers are different, as well as the attached displays, then you have to try all different combinations.

Thanks for your help. You got me looking in the right direction.

What i ended up changing was the AutoScaleMode to be Font on all my screens and that fixed it.
