Power BI Desktop canvas resolution issue

Hello everyone,

 

since the february update I am experiencing a weird behavior - when I drag my Power BI Desktop window from my laptop screen to my external screen (1920x1200), the canvas starts to "repicture" itself as the cursor moves around, making it impossible to select visuals or work within the application at all.

Has anyone been experiencing the same issue? Any ideas on how to fix that?

 

Thanks a lot, Ondřej.

As it turns out it is a scaling issue. And it can be "solved" by setting the same level of scaling for both screens (in Windows at least):

Sorry for the czech language in the screenshot - Control Panel -> Appearance And Personalization -> Display -> Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays. Not a best solution, but it works for now.
