OBS Windows Keep Resizing

[Padinn]

Hello,
I am running RC 6 of 27 and the program resizes after each relaunch. This is only happening to the program docks, not the actual stream overlay. It is kind of annoying, any idea how I can fix it

Can you provide screenshots for reference?

Here you go. When I click the maximize window it centers, then again and its all out of proportion. If I exit and relaunch after editing, it looks like the first picturea gain.

Any tips? This is still happening after installing 27. Seems like some settings file might not be...saving?

I was having a similar issue in my nested webcam group scene, Everytime I repositioned and resized one of my cams and I'd exit and relaunch OBS, it would revert position and size. it still behaves this way, but I did achieve a workaround by resizing the source in a different nested scene.

Have you recently check for Windows Updates and video driver updates?

If you could provide a log file when the issue is happening?

There is a section in the logfiles that shows how OBS is resizing the window (example below)
output 0: pos={0, 0}, size={1920, 1080}, attached=true, refresh=60, name=BenQ GW2480
output 1: pos={-1366, 304}, size={1366, 768}, attached=true, refresh=60, name=

Each Dock pane has its own limits in size. If Dock pane has control buttons - they all will be shown (by design).
For example, selecting new source in the list when the Source Toolbar enabled (under the View menu) makes the Preview window larger because its width depends on the source properties (some are text only, some has more settings).

Only by removing Dock panes (one by one) you can find out which one is causing resizing of the UI. It's either Stat, Custom Browser Docks or Source Toolbar.

@AccidentalsHappen OBS log-file has info only about multi-screen arrangement (logical position of the each display and its size - this is mainly for debugging Display capture sources).

Moving around custom browser sources seemed to help a little. Here is my log:

This is not a personal problem. This is a design problem in OBS. All the docks get resized every time I reopen OBS, and even when I move the window to a monitor with a different resolution and then back to the previous monitor, everything gets all jumbled up. Just add an ACTUAL "Lock UI" feature please.
