When one of the pull-down menus is selected, a drop-down menu results which is used to select which option is desired. The problem is that the pull-down menu takes up a good portion of the screen (i.e. the cut plane for example) and while manipulating the actual cut plane location (after entering the parameters) you have to work around the drop-down menu (and loose that portion of the working screen). Is there a way of collapsing these menus while still working on the screen graphics?
It would help to know your operating system, screen resolution, and which version of Bambu Studio you’re running. A screenshot of what you’re seeing would also be very useful.
Unless you’re on an older laptop with a very low-resolution display, this sounds like a resolution scaling issue with how the app is being rendered. There’s a way to override this in Windows, but before going down that path I need the details above.

I’m using most up -to-date version of “Windows 11 home” at resolution 1920 x 1080. For the example I gave the “CUT” menu when accessed takes up about 1/4 of the working screen (see attached) and sits in its middle. Once all parameters are filled in I’d like that menu to collapse so I have the full grayed work area available to adjust the cut plane. Thank you in advance for your reply!!
I think I see the problem.
Here’s an image that is scaled at 1920 x 1080. Note that the drop-down menu is proportionally smaller than yours. This is influenced in two areas, one is the display resolution in windows 11. You likely have it set to the default which may be 200%. It will scale all windows and artifacts accordingly. Try changing the scale to 100%.
The second area that this can be controlled is in the properties themselves. Go to the app and right click on properties, then click on compatibility. Change DPI settings and experiment with each one.
Note that the Open Advanced Scaling Settings will take you to the Windows Setting for your display just like if you had right-clicked on the desktop.
