Panadapter waterfall height

Noticed that I sometimes can't change the height of the waterfall within the panadapter window.  If I delete the slice in that panadapter it will then allow me to adjust the waterfall height, and I can re-open the slice and it still allows waterfall height adjustment. 

Only noticed the effect on the top-most panadapter, e.g. 1st and 4th panadapter when 8 are being displayed and are both placed at the top of the SmartSDR window.

Have others noticed this before?

    My 6600 does that also when I open a new slice, the top slice becomes real small and I have to drag the display down to where I want it. Does this regardless of what version of SSDR I use or PC or Win7 or Win10

    sometimes this can occur after changing video settings.  I have seen this from time to time..  usually just need to restart the app, or sometimes the computer after the video adjustment

    That's interesting and thanks for your input Chris. Not changed the video setting for probably a couple of years. John, G3WKL

    You've mentioned something that could be relevant as I had opened both new panadaptors and slices when I noticed the effect this afternoon.  I'll do some specific checks tomorrow ...

    @ John G3WKL - Perhaps some video changes brought on by the 1903 transition could be the culprit?  

    Or just an regular along the way update sort of issue?

    In my case video driver updates happen fairly often, and not all played well with SmartSDR.

    Same here. Whether newly created, or recalled via profile change, the top most panadapter is always very small. It can also be tricky to pull down and get back into place. Happens here on a 32" Samsung 4K monitor (3840x2160). I thought I had the problem solved at one time, but it persists. SSDR v2.5.1 I've learned to live with it for the time being...

    I also haven't changed video settings in years and this usually occurs every time I open a new slice. I just learned to live with it lol
    I have windows updates turned off
