Application Sizes Weird?

[CadeC]

Hey everyone,

I just got a new Windows 10 VM on the latest parallels on my MacBook pro. I tried all three display settings: one of two things happens:

-the desktop icons are normal sized, but when I open a program, the buttons and text are so small I can't hardly see them
-the desktop icons are huge, and the application buttons are way bigger than I need them to be. Ex. in Inventor Pro, the build space is so small I can hardly work on a part because the ribbon takes up half the screen

Is there a way to adjust the application view options so that I can run parallels with the normal sizes desktop icons and adjust the applications to look normal?

Thanks
Cade

If you use the control key and the mouse scroll button at the same time you can change the size of icons.
