[1.1.21] Inserting portable solar panel into power armor shrinks viewport of equipment grid

Post by PressurizedSaltAcid »

I'm playing Factorio 1.1.21 on Ubuntu 20.04, with a custom UI scale of 125%.

I noticed that when I put a portable solar panel into my power armor, the equipment grid is squished into a smaller viewport. This means I have to use the scroll bar to see the lower slots in the equipment grid, which is mildly annoying.

Here are some screenshots.

This is what my power armor interface looks like with no portable solar panels. Everything looks normal.

Here is what it looks like with one portable solar panel in the equipment grid. The equipment grid is squished, and a scroll bar has appeared. The culprit appears to be the unnecessary empty space that appears after the text, pushing everything upwards.

Custom UI scaling is not supported, if the result does not work for you, return to the default setting.

I put the UI scale back to 100%, and can confirm that I do not encounter the issue.

But just to clarify, you're saying that the interface option I've circled below is not supported? If it is not supported, why is there a GUI option to adjust it?

So people with small displays or bad eyesight can take advantage of it while accepting its disadvantages.
