Can you scroll with the mouse wheel? Cna you try to launch rviz stating teh size of the window like so:

sudo update
sudo apt install xterm
xterm -geometry 80x24+0+0 -e rviz2

Hi @immemon1811 ,

Could you tell us which course you are following when this fails?

Could you also tell us the exact command used for launching Rviz?

This info will help us better understand and solve the issue.

Hi @immemon1811,

I’ve just refunded the payment, as you requested. It should appear in your account in the next 5-10 days.

Now, related to the issue, I’ve tried to reproduce it, but I really couldn’t.

So, if you can, I would ask some things to help us better diagnose and solve this error:

1. Could you copy here the error messages that you have in the terminal when this happens and paste it here?
2. I suppose you have already tried opening RViz using Chrome and Firefox, right? If not, could you try using another browser (either Chrome or Firefox?)
3. If you always open rviz at work, is it possible to try somewhere else (at your home, for example)?

Sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused.

I wish you all the best.

I tried opening rviz in my personal laptop at home

As well as i tried in chrome and brave

The issue still exist…

Rviz window got open in brave as normal size but as soon as i click to rviz window to give goal state it becomes tiny as image it attached.

There is no error in terminal every node in launch file is launched properly.

Thanks @immemon1811, for your feedback.

I’ll have to investigate this further to see why it happens to you.

Maybe because of language or keyboard settings, I don’t know.

In any case, thank you again for the feedback.

If you suspect settings of browser then i will try to change the settings to default and try it again from my side.
