I ran the activityindicator.py sample and you can see below how it looks:

Everything is over each other and squeezed in

    That's odd. I have not seen this before.

    Hmmmm. Maybe it has to do with my resolution and scaling settings?

    I have four 4K (3840x2160) displays connected:

    Displays

    And my primary display uses a scaling of 175%:

    I'll test it a bit and report back.

    Ah. My suspicions were correct.

    I set my primary display resolution to 1080p and 100% scaling:

    Windows Display Resolution and Scaling

    And now it's looking good:

    So seems like it's a HighDPI issue.

    Okay. So I've done some testing with the sample. It looks like it has to do with the scaling.

    I normally use my primary display on 4K at 175% scaling, but here are some other ones with the sample app running:

    4K at 225% scaling

    4K at 225% scaling
    sample app running on 4K at 225% scaling

    4K at 200% scaling

    4K at 200% scaling
    sample app running on 4K at 200% scaling

    4K at 175% scaling

    4K at 175% scaling
    sample app running on 4K at 175% scaling

    4K at 150% scaling

    4K at 150% scaling sample app running on 4K at 125% scaling

    4K at 125% scaling

    4K at 125% scaling
    sample app running on 4K at 125% scaling
