Graphical User Interface problem with Simulink Design Optimization Toolbox

I am having problems with several windows in SDO GUI in MATLAB versions 2024a and 2024b (not before): I can see some buttons. Is there any solution?

Hey @Carlos M. Velez S.

Could you provide the steps to reproduce the issue and the full screenshot?

That's the problem: I can't see those buttons with version 2024a or 2024b, but I can with 2023a. Once I open the tool, I click on "Open Session" or "Select Experiments" and I can't see the buttons.This happens on different computers.

Hi @Carlos M. Velez S.,

I tried to reproduce this GUI issue in my system (MATLAB R2024a) by following this example:

But I couldn't replicate the issue shown.

If you are doing something different and specific to your model, then full reproduction steps would be useful.

Since the buttons are being cut off in different popup windows and in the same way, this might be a system/graphic driver issue. I would recommend doing the following and see if any of them resolve the problem:

• Restarting MATLAB
• Restarting your system.
• Clearing MATLAB cache

If the issue persists, you may want to consider reinstalling MATLAB.

Edit: On digging further into it, I found an external bug report for this issue.

Thank you for your help, but the problem persists. I can't see those buttons with version 2024a or 2024b, but I can with 2023a. It must be a configuration problem, since I see the problem on two of my computers that are very different and even have different versions of Windows (10 and 11).

Hey @Carlos M. Velez S.,

I was able to reproduce the issue when I increased the text size of my system. I also verified that this does not happen in 2023a. Reducing the system font size (or any other text formatting) back to default settings should solve the issue. Do let me know if this fixes the problem.

Edit: I found an external bug report for this issue.

That was the problem and the solution. Thank you very much @Divyajyoti Nayak.
