Powerpoint will not scale properly on second monitor

This is something to do with the screen resolution. Try disabling the hardware acceleration under file > option > advanced > display and check if it resolves the issue.

Powerpoint refuses to scale properly on my second monitor and borders menu items etc. stay too big to operate efficiently. Word is working as it should and the menu items resize appropriately when moving from monitor to monitor. You can view an example screen shot of both Word and Powerpoint on the monitor here: http://screencast.com/t/MAkVnCXAtfph

Is there a setting to fix this and make it behave like Word does?

I have this same problem.  Powerpoint scales its interface properly on my laptop's builtin display (which is a HighDPI display, 3200x1800), but when the Powerpoint window is moved to the external monitor the menu text is too big etc, exactly as shown in jhoski's screenshot.

Has anyone resolved this?

Disabling Hardware acceleration and restarting Powerpoint has no effect.  Neither does the "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" setting in the Compatibility properties.  In fact, Powerpoint behaves exactly as if "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" were already enabled -- i.e., if I turn this setting on for Word or Excel, then they behave like Powerpoint does.  But turning it off for Word or Excel returns them to normal, correct behaviour, while Powerpoint behaves as if the setting is stuck in the on setting.

I have that same exact problem. Does anyone solved this issue?

Thanks.

No solution yet to my knowledge.  I think it's something MS overlooked in their most recent office release.  My guess is they'll fix it in the next round.

I ended up returning my ultra-high res laptop (3200 x 1920) and getting a "normal" high res laptop (1920 x 1080).  That's way more than enough resolution for a 13-15 inch screen.  It made life much easier in all sorts of ways.

Actually, I ended up returning that one too because the wireless card was bad.  After two rounds wrestling with windows laptops and many hours rebuilding my desktop, and dealing with trouble-shooting/tech support, I gave up entirely on Windows.  Switched back to a Mac after 7 years with Windows.  Can't say everything about Mac OS is perfect.  But wow their hardware and hardware/software integration is NICE.  Things just WORK!

I know - not the answer you were hoping for.  I feel your pain.

Thanks for your feedback.

In my case, all other Office 2013 applications are behaving as expected, that is, they are re-scaling properly when I take them to a second monitor. Only Powerpoint seems to be stucked.

Indeed, it looks like a bug.
