Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif/issues/13

Originally assigned to: @NickeManarin on GitHub.

I have a laptop in a multi-monitor setup. The laptop monitor is configured to 2880x1620. It's placed in a docking station and thus a bit far away as would otherwise be normal if I would have the laptop in my lap, the "size of text, apps and other items" is set to quite high 175%.

The other screen resolutions is 2560x1440 and 1200x1920, both at 100%. Recording on them works fine.
Decreasing the font size on the laptop display to 100% resolves the issue.
Increasing the font size on the other displays reproduces the issue on those displays too.

Update: Using version 2.2

I have attached two screenshots showing this.

Even if there's no fix, is the scenario detectable?
I spent a lot of time troubleshooting, when I just wanted to record. Then I discovered it worked if I just dragged what I wanted to record and the recorder to the other screen... A warning/tip would have been extremely helpful at that point.

Detecting this kind of issue is hard. It took me some time to understand it too. :/

I had a warning tagged as [Bug] before migrating to GitHub. I'll update the release notes. :)

I believe this bug is fixed. Tested with two monitors with different dpi.
